Message previews would be super useful here so that I can see which requests I might want to accept at a glance

Mutual followers is also useful information but not a strong enough signal on its own

/new-york by day 🗽 /latenightcrew by night :) Fan of eating tacos and bringing people together, often at the same time 🌮

Make it longer? Two lines is usually a decent enough preview for me to decide which ones to prioritize opening

I think there’s this aversion to make cells too large but if this inbox is something that’s designed to be cleared + old content gets bumped down anyway, I don’t think there’s a downside to adding more context

We had them before. 

I get a lot of message requests (here and Twitter), the single most useful signal is mutuals. Content preview is too short most of the time.

Message previews are helpful for quickly identifying relevant requests. Mutual followers alone may not be enough of a signal

Message previews and mutual followers are both helpful for making decisions on acceptig requests
