We’ll soon be implementing some changes in our effort to reduce spam in Direct Messages. Unverified accounts will have daily limits on the number of DMs they can send. Subscribe today to send more messages

Kinda pointless when most of the spam I encounter in general is from verified accounts. Love that doucheblock extension, and Blue Blocker for automuting accounts that promote tweets.

well I just checked the twitter replies and am now adding “sugar daddy”, “sugar momma” and “sugar baby” to doucheblock. They can’t even handle spam replies to the support account.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
