Twitter could be working on a feature that will allow s to decide who can reply to their tweets after they've been published. It is still unclear how the feature will work exactly or when it will be rolled out to the general public since the company hasn't made an official announcement yet. Notably, Twitter is also working on introducing a Super Follows function that will help creators charge their followers and provide them additional content. The features were spotted by reverse engineering expert Jane Manchun Wong.

Wong tweeted on June 5 that the platform is planning to introduce a feature called 'change who can reply.' This will let s select the specific people who can interact with the tweet after it has been published. Additionally, the might also have an option for not letting anyone reply to their tweet. The feature is currently under testing.

A few s expressed their concerns on Wong's tweet regarding the new feature being tested by Twitter. One (@wichern) was concerned about more bubbles being formed on the social media platform, while another (@itscameronbloom) asked whether this feature will delete all replies made earlier or just stop new ones from being posted.
