Yes, I think you should at least display them as what they are: testimonials from friends, not tweets from happy users.
Whenever I see a collection of (legitimate) user tweets, it gives me reassurance that a) the product is liked b) the product has been around for a while c) the product is popular. A company will always praise its own product. But if users start to do it publically on Twitter, it's an honest recommendation that is worth a lot in my eyes. It's like a grassroots movement. But if you fake it, it feels like astroturfing.
- gavribirnbaum 6y agoTotally agree. We are changing that now. Thanks a lot for the feedback. Will rectify this.
- gavribirnbaum 6y agoUpdate: we removed it, and are replacing it with feedback people tweeted at us (not friends), and feedback we got from here and Reddit :)
