Twitter users are definitely having a very exciting year as the social media company continues to launch exciting features for its users. Although we are almost in December, the app might behave a few more surprises users will definitely appreciate.
As reported by 9to5mac, a reverse engineer Nima Owji says users might be a lot closer to the release date of Reactions. With reports that it’s being tested a couple of months ago, the feature is set to launch soon, as Owji was able to come up with references to that in Twitter’s code.
With new reactions such as “tears of joy,” “thinking face,” “clapping hands,” and “crying face,” this feature is designed to give users the ability to better express or react to certain conversations. Also to give users “a better understanding of how their Tweets are received.”
Asides from that, Nima has also explained that Twitter now has the ability to store data about the downvotes feature, which is another indicator that this function is set for release sooner than later. The reverse engineer also revealed that the company changed the downvote position as well, so it will appear before the like button.
Twitter has even added a new tab explaining how downvotes work:
Tap to downvote: See a reply that doesn’t seem relevant to the conversation? Let us know by downvoting;
Downvotes are private: Your votes aren’t public and won’t be shared with the Tweet author or others on the timeline;
Help make Twitter better: Your feedback helps us prioritize higher quality content for you – and everyone on Twitter.
From the look of things, the downvote on Twitter will also be tied with the Sort Replies feature. Just as the name implies, users will be able to select either to receive all replies or just the ones relevant. The company explains:
Relevant to you: This will include replies from people you follow and other replies users will likely be interesting in;
All Replies: This will include all replies, those that may be potentially smappy, harmful, or offensive.
Fingers are crossed as we await the release of his feature.
