Muted accounts are not notified that you’ve muted them, and you will still get notifications when they mention you in Tweets and send you Direct Messages. It’s a great way to stay connected with friends, even if you aren’t interested in seeing all of their Tweets. Muting another Twitter account means you will not see that account's Tweets in your timeline. You can access this option from the icon in a Tweet.
We may use this information to optimize and tailor your experience in the future.
When you mark a Tweet as Show less often, it helps Twitter better understand the types of Tweets that you'd like to see less of in your Home timeline. Read instructions for adjusting your Notifications timeline. If you’re receiving unwanted replies or mentions from accounts you do not follow, you can filter the types of notifications you receive. Your Notifications timeline displays your interactions with other Twitter accounts, such as mentions, likes, Retweets, and who has recently followed you.
You can always follow an account again if you change your mind. Unfollowing is the simplest action you can take to stop seeing someone’s Tweets on your Home timeline. Tap the icon at the top of any Tweet, right from your Home timeline, to quickly access options like unfollow, mute, block, report, and more. We make it easy for you to take action on a Tweet.
