Learn how to hide likes on Twitter with these simple steps

Your likes on Twitter are not private. Anyone who follows you or has access to your account can find your list of favorite or liked posts. It can be quite an intrusion because Twitter sometimes suggests these liked posts to your followers.

Twitter displays the number of retweets and likes on all your posts. Many users want to block this display because the number of likes and retweets on the posts may be seen as a tell-tale sign for many users not to view these posts. For example, a post with less than 20 likes may get ignored by users because of its low popularity.

To avoid this from happening, you can remove these liked posts from your account, following a few simple methods.

What happens when you like a tweet on Twitter:

1. The person who made the post will get instantly notified of your action on their post
2. If the original post contains account mentions and tags, Twitter will also inform those people of your “like” action
3. If you like a retweeted post, the person who initially retweeted Twitter will also notify the post of your “like” action
