We’re committing Twitter to help increase the collective health, openness, and civility of public conversation, and to hold ourselves publicly accountable towards progress.

We don’t yet know if those are the right indicators of conversation health for Twitter. And we don’t yet know how best to measure them, or the best ways to help people increase individual, community, and ultimately, global public health.
Show this thread -
What we know is we must commit to a rigorous and independently vetted set of metrics to measure the health of public conversation on Twitter. And we must commit to sharing our results publicly to benefit all who serve the public conversation.

We simply can’t and don’t want to do this alone. So we’re seeking help by opening up an RFP process to cast the widest net possible for great ideas and implementations. This will take time, and we’re committed to providing all the necessary resources. RFP:https://blog.twitter.com/official/en_us/topics/company/2018/twitter-health-metrics-proposal-submission.html …

2. Shared reality. This is a major issue. Most of the activity in any debate is the establishment of positions or facts. If one is to base the debate on predetermind "facts" than whos facts are to be used. No this undermines the whole purpose of discussion...

"The sky is blue" i am sure would score as highly receptive but is not the basis for productive and intersting conversation. This article seems to me divorced from the realities of social interaction. Basing your business model on fiction doesn't seem wise. Good luck in DC!!

3. Variety of opinion. This statement seems subjective. Is the measure attepting to score uniformity either low or high? In either case the metric cannot be applied. If we are talking about science than uniformity is positive, if it were instead philosophy uniformity would be bad

1. Shared attention. This statement assumes that if the interest in a topic is not shared by opposing views than discussion of said topic would be unhealthy. This assertion is untrue. Often times their is impetus by both sides to avoid arbitrary topics...

Receptivity. Again a bit subjective. Receptivity indicates acceptance of any assertion or narrative. Its a lack of skepticism. This seems to be incongruit with healty discussion. Hiegh receptivity makes for dull conversation...

While i appreciate that achidemic efforts are directed towards such understanding i fear that their basis for evaluation is improperly laid. Healthy debate has always been offencive. Healthy does not mean comfortable nor easy. To maintain health requires effort and discomfort...

Was it objectively healthy for our sociaty to have a debate over slavery or sufferage? What would be the state of our sociaty if we were 2 have avoided such difficult conversations. Conversations in which one side was uninterested in addressing the issues raised by the opposition

Presenting "facts" in any discussion must over come scrutiny to be acceptable by both parties. If asserted facts are not assumed by the majority it is not a reflection on the assertions validity. Can you make an assertion which is objectivly true and is not accepted? Yes.

This is a poetic way of covering your platform as one of Censorship. It’s smoke and mirrors wrapped up in BS.
