Another 🔑 update today: you can now use Two Factor Authentication without linking a phone number. If you already have your phone number linked along with App-based 2FA, you can unlink your 📞 it in the "Account" section of your settings while still keeping 2FA on. twitter.com/TwitterSafety/…

Every day, people come to Twitter to see what’s happening. One of the unique things about Twitter is that “what’s happening” is fueled by people sharing their thoughts openly, through Tweets. But sharing your thoughts publicly can be intimidating! 🧵

We’ve been listening to this feedback and working to create new capabilities that address some of the anxieties that hold people back from talking on Twitter. Today, in Brazil only, we’re starting a test (on Android and iOS) for one of those new capabilities. It’s called Fleets.
9
Fleets are a way to share fleeting thoughts. Unlike Tweets, Fleets disappear after 24 hours and don’t get Retweets, Likes, or public replies-- people can only react to your Fleets with DMs. Instead of showing up in people’s timelines, Fleets are viewed by tapping on your avatar.
10
We’re hoping that Fleets can help people share the fleeting thoughts that they would have been unlikely to Tweet. This is a substantial change to Twitter, so we’re excited to learn by testing it (starting with the rollout today in Brazil) and seeing how our customers use it.
11
I know what you're thinking: “THIS SOUNDS A LOT LIKE STORIES!”. Yes, there are many similarities with the Stories format that will feel familiar to people. There are also a few intentional differences to make the experience more focused on sharing and seeing people’s thoughts.

Somebody send these guys to Florida to talk to the beach goers. twitter.com/protectheflame…

We rolled this out as a test starting today. Let's you easily see all the Retweets with comments of any tweet. Let us know what you think if you have access to the experience. twitter.com/jinepiphany/st…

📣 Everybody on Twitter now has the ability to choose who can reply to their Tweets.
By default, replies can come from anybody but you can also limit to just people you follow, or specific people you mention. Give it a try, and let us know what you think! twitter.com/Twitter/status…

After over 5 years, we’re saying goodbye to the Periscope app (by March 2021). We shared detail on why we made this decision and some of the steps we’re taking to support the Periscope community through this transition in this blog post: periscope.medium.com/farewell-peris…

starting today, we're rolling out an early beta of a new conversational space that lets people talk together (live, with their voice!) on Twitter. only a small group can *start* a space for now (anybody can join), but we'll expand the group of folks who can use this over time. twitter.com/TwitterSpaces/…

The racism and violence against the Asian community is sickening. Every day, another heartbreaking story about people traumatized, hurt or killed. The news from Georgia today makes me sick to my stomach. Pure evil. #StopAsianHate
