How To Avoid Spoilers On Twitter There are times on social media when you're desperately trying not to hear about a particular topic or event whether it's a sporting, tv, film or other event type. For me, the most recent instance of this was the release of the much anticipated Marvel Avengers Endgame movie - a culmination of 10 years of Marvel movies. Now, while the studio did a very good job of getting people and the press not to spoil the ending with the #DontSpoilTheEndgame hashtag promotion, there's always a worry that you'll accidentally read something. So, did you realise that
you can mute tweets containing specific words and hashtags? Twitter allows you to mute Tweets that contain particular words, phrases, usernames, emojis, or hashtags for a period of time. It's worth noting though that this isn't necessarily a 'global' mute as it will only mute these in your notifications and home timeline, but does include replies, mentions and all interactions around these. Unfortunately, you will still see your muted word or hashtag when doing a search on Twitter or if you've enabled mobile notification on a particular Twitter account.
