A digital social space like Twitter can be a place of curious and intriguing interactions or a swamp of false information and negativity. Without some handy privacy features to limit information, using Twitter would be much harder than it is. Users always have the ability to unfollow or block topics and users, for example, and disconnect from those accounts.
Can you tell if someone muted you on Twitter?
Twitter also offers a slightly more gentle approach: the mute button. This lets you remove an account’s tweets from your home timeline without the other person knowing. But what if the tables are turned and someone mutes you? The mute button wouldn’t really be a privacy feature if Twitter also let users know who actually muted them.
But there is a workaround to find out if someone has muted you on Twitter. Here's all about it.
Since there are no working apps or technical tricks that can help you figure out who muted you, we’re going to use a deductive approach. To understand that, it’s important to discuss how muting works and what happens when someone is muted on Twitter.
