Twitter will be testing a new feature (only on Android devices to start) that will prompt users who have not clicked on the article they are about to retweet to actually open the story and read it first.
“Sharing an article can spark conversation, so you may want to read it before you Tweet it,” the Twitter Support account tweeted on Wednesday. “To help promote informed discussion, we’re testing a new prompt on Android — when you Retweet an article that you haven’t opened on Twitter, we may ask if you’d like to open it first.”
