X improves content reporting flow
- X (formerly Twitter) is reportedly making it easier to report rule-breaking content in the app.
- It is doing so with an improved reporting flow which makes it easier for users to specifically highlight their concerns with a few clicks.
- X will give users more specific violations to choose from when reporting a post, for example concerns around child safety or suicide or self-harm.
- Once the user has selected the type of issue they are issued with a screen with more specific issues.
- Users can then submit their concern and a screen with more actions to limit further harm is displayed.
