Twitter C/D

when i do a really good tweet i want the 'damn son where'd you find this' guy to go 'that's a BOMB-ass tweet'

somebody bearable fb me when twitter has changed the world I cbf checking every day

we're all over this by now i'm sure but i'm still enjoying it

totally not over marijuana simpson yet

c'mon twitter users i'd really appreciate it if the considerate tendency towards trigger warnings extended to not throwing photos of dead children all over my feed.

minor weird twitter player @bro_pair aka 'degenerate gandhi' wrote an article for jacobin about pro wrestling

i like it, predictably.

RIP twitter: https://gigaom.com/2014/09/04/twitter-cfo-says-a-facebook-style-filtered-feed-is-coming-whether-you-like-it-or-not/

:(

twitter c or d tho

yeah I will probably quit if that happens

bad enough getting the "sponsored tweets" as it is

I've not seen one sponsored tweet in my life, using Tweetbot. This plan defo defo sucks balls though.

doesn't the discover "tab" already do this

no one uses the discover tab lol

lol otm

Yeah, this is awful.

shd at least give people an option

i mean the vast majority will not know or care why not just let the fussy ones do their thing

sometimes somebody who doesn't follow me will fav a tweet, an unretweeted tweet, & it will occur to me that this means somewhere out there somebody is using the discover feature, just bereft of content, unsated by their feed & reliant on the faving impulses of others & the computations of some remote whirring twitter computer bank to guide them. just unthinkable to float so freely, driving around looking out of the windows for distraction

just saw some dumbass from thinkprogress tweeting that this is a good thing bcz "twitter is already unusable for the majority of users" and wanted to punch the screen

twtr shd just embrace its identity at the l33t social network and build around that imho instead of trying to be facebook when theres already facebook

Maybe VCs are forcing their hand

they cld launch a second app thats abt surfacing trends or whatever for n00bs

Oh wait I forgot it already had an IPO

Lol

Probably losing tons of money then

doesnt mean theyre not getting pressure from investors tho

they are losing tons of money but only cause they spend wildly on R&D trying to be facebook, their core business is dece

hopefully in 10 years all social media converge and are called "will oremus"

let's just revert to using livejournal

Twitter is already unusable for the majority of users, because they've ruined the website and official apps.

It's only usable via third-party apps imo

Otm, I can't use their own apps or web-app, they're terrible. If they can keep these changes away from third party apps (as has been the case up until now) I've got no beef with that.

My office recently switched to virtual machines at our desks, so I don't have the power to run Tweetdeck smoothly anymore and have been relegated to Twitter dot com; I've been pleasantly surprised that though it lacks the rapid fire endorphin button pushing of Tweetdeck's constant updates, I also find it easier to follow convos, which is a big part of how I use it now rather than the old days of following 10 live tags at once.

twitter shuts down jihad-related accounts

jihadists call for the assassination of Twitter employees

seems proportionate

Being able to choose whose content you see is fantastic until there's a big controversial news story and you're hit by a giant tsunami of mono-opinion.

Am I the only one who doesn't get the embroidery page thing that's doing the rounds atm?

this ed champion fellow is a real

No, those hashtags are useful for muting.
