Twitter introduceert Fleets; berichten die weer verdwijnen

door Patrick Petersen · 18 november 2020

Twitter introduceert berichten die na 24 uur weer verdwijnen net als Snapchat en Instagram. Ook Twitter komt nu met de mogelijkheid om berichten te posten die na 24 uur weer verdwijnen.

Twitter’s purpose is to serve the public conversation – it’s where you go to see what’s happening and talk about it. But some of you tell us that Tweeting is uncomfortable because it feels so public, so permanent, and like there’s so much pressure to rack up Retweets and Likes. That’s why, unfortunately, there are so many 🔥 Tweets left in drafts! To help people feel more comfortable, we’ve been working on a lower pressure way for people to talk about what’s happening. Today, we’re launching Fleets so everyone can easily join the conversation in a new way – with their fleeting thoughts.

Fleets, zoals de deze berichten heet, moet gebruikers ‘minder druk laten ervaren’ als ze hun snelle gedachten op Twitter zetten. In normaal Nederlands: mocht je spijt hebben van het delen van die impusieve mening, dan verdwijnt die vanzelf.

That thing you didn’t Tweet but wanted to but didn’t but got so close but then were like nah.

We have a place for that now—Fleets!
