Now the key to the whole thing.... 5. Get all new users to _follow each other_. That way they don't start at 0. That way they can post top-level tweets and actually have an audience. That way they can like and reply to each other.
So that's the basic idea. Now, why don't *I* run this kind of program? In short: I'm bad at facilitating community. I could probably make a decent stab at it, but it would take me a lot of emotional energy that I just don't have these days. But I do think it's a great idea!
Anyway, thanks for letting me get that off my mind. LMK if you've heard of anyone doing something similar! I'd be curious to hear how it went. And please share any riffs on this idea and/or positive suggestions for improvement.
Seems like people think this could be useful for existing users as well.
I like @bracht’s description of it, as helping people move from bad Twitter neighborhoods to good oneshttps://twitter.com/bracht/status/1147578017360830467?s=21 …
You’re asking people to give Twitter #freelabor for a labor intensive process.
That’s unfair and at it’s base, exploitation.
This is a duty and responsibility of the @TwitterSupport and HELP and whatever division oversees them.
#NoExploitation
You’re asking unpaid users, whose data Twitter ALREADY makes millions from, to give Twitter #Freelabor for a labor intensive job. #Exploitation.
This is t/responsibility of whatever division oversees HELP & SUPPORT. Pitch this to those VPs & get the funding to pay people.
