The Twitter algorithm learns your likes, but it’s not perfect. sometimes we have to teach him the things we don’t like. To do this, the social network presents you with various options, some more extreme than others, and you can apply them in the following way:

  • Open the application of Twitter or your website, and log in.
  • look for some Tweet that is not to your liking at your start.
  • Press the three points located on the right side of the Tweet.
  • Different options will appear (taking the example of the Tweets above)
    • I’m not interested Maybe you like it: Select if you don’t like this section of recommendations. It can also be Popular Images, Popular Videos, Gaming, among many others.
    • I am not interested in this Tweet: select if what you are not interested in is that specific Tweet. This is the option that you must select in the event that the Tweet appears as user followseither User indicated that he likes.
    • Mute @User: Select if you don’t want to see any Tweets from this person on your home.
    • Block @User: select if you do not want to have any type of interaction with this person in any way.

Apply this to Tweets you don’t like whenever you can, and little by little the algorithm will learn, stopping showing what you may not like or do not want to see at your start. Note that you can also apply this for ads, and so on. get a start completely adapted to your taste.

On the other hand, if you are curious you can see the first Tweet of account, or any other.
