A few thoughts on @maggieNYT’s article on Twitter. A lot of fair critiques within.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/20/sunday-review/maggie-haberman-twitter-donald-trump.html …

”The downside is that everyone is treated as equally expert on various topics.” One of the biggest areas I believe we can help. Helping to determine credible voices per topic in real-time is extremely challenging, but believe it’s possible. Mix of algos and network.

“There is an important discussion about journalism that must take place, including about how all of us performed during the 2016 campaign, but Twitter is not where a nuanced or thoughtful discussion can happen.” This is what we’d like to fix the most.

Fundamentally, we need to focus more on the conversational dynamics within Twitter. We haven’t paid enough consistent attention here. Better organization, more context, helping to identify credibility, ease of use. Challenging work and would love to hear your thoughts and ideas.

“... everyone gets to have a voice” Uh, no. Everyone with a blue check mark gets to have a voice. The rest of us are nobodies, Jack. Do away with it.

This is blatantly untrue and you know it. People whose political views that align with your own use far worse language and personal insults than people whose accounts get suspended

”And it is democratic—everyone gets to have a voice”. Jack, until you fix the incredible bias of the QFD shadowban, this is, and will continue to be, false. Right now, some voices are heard more than others.
