Twitter rolled out new features on Monday to help users disable notifications from accounts that they want to avoid.

The website said its "advanced filter settings" will now have options for users to mute notifications from accounts that they do not follow as well as from accounts that do not follow them.

Users can also filter lower-quality content from notifications such as content that appears to be automated and mute notifications related to certain words and phrases.

Twitter and rival Facebook have been facing criticism for failing to tackle cyber-bullying, fake news and extremist propaganda on their platforms.
