Games of Thrones spoilers are constantly posted everywhere online. Avengers: Endgame is also coming by the weekend, and your online enemies will be posting spoilers too. There is a way to make Twitter a little safe for you. We understand these spoilers can ruin a very crucial part of your film life.

Following these few steps will not ensure total safety, but it is a great preventive measure. You can still enjoy Twitter fear of spoilers.

For example, for Game of Thrones, which is currently in its last and most crucial season, you can mute phrases like “Game of Thrones,” “#GameOfThrones,” “#GOT,” or even names like “Daenerys.”

What these will do is eliminate any tweets with these words from your timeline. You will only be able to access the tweet if an arch enemy sends it via DM.
