NEW DELHI: Microblogging platform Twitter has announced that it will be discontinuing its disappearing posts feature Fleets, citing lack of an encouraging response from users.
In a blog post on July 14, Ilya Brown, head of product, brand and video ads at Twitter said the company built Fleets as a lower-pressure , ephemeral way for people to share their fleeting thoughts. We hoped Fleets would help more people feel comfortable joining the conversation on Twitter. But, in the time since we introduced Fleets to everyone, we haven’t seen an increase in the number of new people joining the conversation with Fleets like we hoped. Because of this, on August 3, Fleets will no longer be available on Twitter, he added.
