I think they might have seen this when they implemented this feature in their software.
- baddox 7y agoPerhaps, although I'm not so sure. The muting feature as documented is clearly intended to apply to the actual content of tweets. The keywords in this list clearly seem to be things that would appear in, say, a JSON representation of a tweet, but wouldn't be part of the actual textual content of a tweet. Of course it's possible that they deliberately implemented this as an undocumented power user feature.
- dvtrn 7y agoI think you're right. As an example, I have the word/name of a certain political figure 'muted', however will continue to see tweets involving that figure if a friend retweets a tweet that has an embedded 'card' linking to a news article featuring said political figure.
