Twitter wants it to be easier for you to follow and join conversation on its platform. Part of that apparently is adding small icons to users’ profile pictures in replies. Twitter on Thursday said its testing icons instead of labels within replies. The icons appear toward the bottom right of users profile pictures in replies. In the example shared by Twitter, one icon is the @ symbol, one is a microphone and one appears to be a person with a verified check. The tiny microphone appears note replies from the original poster of a tweet. It’s unclear exactly how many icons are being tested in total. Twitter didn’t immediately respond to a request for more information.
