Fleets are for sharing momentary thoughts – they help start conversations and only stick around for 24 hours. Through our tests in Brazil, Italy, India, and South Korea, we learned Fleets helped people feel more comfortable joining the conversation – we saw people with Fleets talk more on Twitter. Those new to Twitter found Fleets to be an easier way to share what's on their mind. Because they disappear from view after a day, Fleets helped people feel more comfortable sharing personal and casual thoughts, opinions, and feelings. These are early findings from our tests and we’re excited to learn more about how Fleets are used by you.
Just like Tweets, Fleets must follow the Twitter Rules. To report a Fleet, tap the ‘v’ icon at the top of a Fleet; you can also mute the account posting the Fleet from here. We’ll take action if a reported Tweet breaks our rules. If you Fleet a Tweet with a label or warning, it will carry over to Fleets. In some cases, you may need to tap through a warning before you’re able to view a Fleet.
