1/ Here are a few things I do to contribute to keeping Twitter a decent & fun place to be. Call it grassroots moderation :-)
2/ Your thread = your home, your rules.
Remind anyone engaged in labelling, name calling, bad faith that they're here to have a grown-up discussion. Or they can go tweet elsewhere.
Shut down any conversation that involves hate and abuse, delete the original tweet if necessary.

3/ Assume good intent.
Twitter shouldn't be a contest for always penning perfect tweets; sometimes people use the wrong words.
Remember you won't convince anyone by shouting at them 😂

4/ Apologising is OK if you screwed up or if there was a misunderstanding. There's nothing weak about it. Don't be THAT GUY (or gal or ...).
Humor and wit, not anger, are the best way to defuse an argument, or send a troll packing. Perfect your 🔥!

5/ Bottom-line: If we all do our bit to keep our timelines civil, fun and engaged and we keep our follows and followers clean, we can do our thing to help make Twitter better. I love Twitter 😜.
