Nice discussion of studies & reported experiences around Twitter unfollowing. Thanks @OtherSociology for writing and @prof_nch for sharing!https://twitter.com/prof_nch/status/735484952997957632 …

I often struggle to navigate different expectations of different Twitter users - several parts of this article address some of these.

It is tricky; isn't it? Many people use Twitter to different aims. The key thing is if one wants to not be unfollowed is to RT others!

:) I sometime wish there was an option, that if taken up was very visible to others, where one could describe the kind of interactions+

one was interested in (e.g. "Please don't @ me unless I know you" or "Please try to avoid Replying-All to me") so we could fit our+

behaviour better to what others would appreciate - and also to less often get a negative response to an intended-positive interaction.

I can understand it can be difficult to work these things out! But it's the same as offline; different cultures have different norms...

... People don't come with instruction manuals. When you encounter someone reacting in away you find negative, consider from their shoes
