Goon, is right, if someone notices, just say, oh really? I didn't realize, must have been a bug/accident.

when i've noticed someone i liked has unfollowed me, i'm so crestfallen and ashamed i can't bring myself to ask even though i really do wanna know whether i said something to hurt or offend that i should be aware of or if they just like something i insult on a daily basis like Drake
every word of this otm, except that i try to restrict my drake insults otherwise they'd take up 80% of my feed

if someone unfollows me i just assume its because of the constant stream of bad tweets

Can't relate either. Why get so uptight about unfollowing/unfriending?
Muting RTs makes Twitter so much nicer to read.
― Elvis Telecom, Monday, 28 December 2015 01:05 (eight years ago) link
oh yeah always turn off retweets

But then you miss those ppl who are excellent curators of RT's.
― Jeff, Monday, 28 December 2015 01:24 (eight years ago) link
yeah i turn off RTs only for people who use them to spam the feed

5. A lot of Twitter’s recent moves seem like dude-fussing.Are you familiar with dude-fussing? It’s when you go camping and someone feels a primal need to poke at the fire every 30 seconds. Or when someone is barbecuing and they cant just leave the fucking burgers alone.These actions don’t have any real effect. But they are fussy and make a great show of effort at doing something to make it all better.See also: Polls. Moments.

The only answer, which I don’t think is feasible, is to say, ‘You know what, we’re going to be the best damn 300 million-monthly-active-user service we think we can be,’
What a wasteland

Really ok with "While you were away". Moments is garbage.

Hopefully there will be a replacement for twitter when it crashes or is so sold to f/book.

idk, assume acquired by whoever is going to be its fate.
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 21:40 (eight years ago) link
feel like they'd just get the most important devs and found another startup, the decent ones would go to other tech companies like snapchat or something, and yeah, the rest, who knows
― F♯ A♯ (∞), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 22:04 (eight years ago) link
The 10K thing seems like something I could live with as long as your feed is just the 140 character tweets with a link for more. I could just unfollow those that can't get everything in to 140 characters.
― Jeff, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 22:17 (eight years ago) link
to stop Google doing so?
― nashwan, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 22:28 (eight years ago) link
fair point. google's acquisition spree(?) goes under the radar. they'd be up to no good with twtr. if goog could die off it'd be a fine time for the web
