Twitter might soon let you un-tag yourself in threads
Don't want to get notified in a Twitter thread anymore? You might be able to leave that conversation in the future. App researcher Jane Manchun Wong spotted a feature that allows you to leave conversation threads you don't want to be part of anymore. The "Leave this conversation" feature will let you un-tag yourself without letting the other participants know you aren't in the conversation anymore. They might still notice, given that they can't type in your handle. It'll just be displayed as plain text after you press the button. No one else will be able to tag you again in the same thread. That doesn't mean you won't be able to see the conversation. That's still something you can do. It's unclear if this feature will get a wide release. But if it does, is it something you find helpful?
