Dislike someone on Twitter? Here's how to mute them

New Delhi: Twitter is a social media platform that allows individuals to express their ideas, opinions, and perspectives with their followers. Similarly, anyone who follows someone on Twitter can read their posts. There are times, though, when you want to remove a tweet from your timeline without informing the account owner.

You can use the app's mute options in this circumstance. As per the information provided by Twitter, "Mute is a feature that allows you to remove an account's Tweets from your timeline without unfollowing or blocking that account."

Users should be aware that muted accounts are unaware that they have been muted, and that they can be unmuted at any time. You'll need to go to your muted accounts settings on twitter.com or your app settings on Twitter for iOS or Android to see a list of accounts you've muted. However, before you mute someone's account, you should be aware of several essential features, such as the fact that muted accounts can track you and that you can track muted accounts. You will not be unfollowed if you mute an account.

Additionally, muting an account has no effect on the account's ability to send you a direct message, and any muted account will no longer send you push or SMS notifications.
