New from Twitter: an upcoming feature will let you control who can reply to your tweet as you compose it, there will be the ability to limit replies to followers, people who are mentioned in the tweet, or no replies at all

I could see people getting annoyed when officials/brands limit replies, this could effectively kill the ability to ratio

Btw, it's sadly fitting that Twitter is basically unusable for me right now because my tweet about an anti-ratio feature is ... getting ratioed. RIP my mentions.

A few more points on this: -you won't be able to lit replies retroactively, you have to do it before you send the tweet -quote tweeting will work normally even if replies don't

Sounds like a pretty privileged viewpoint to me.
