There's so much unintentional comedy arising from that it's astonishing.
― Matt DC, Friday, 11 October 2013 12:40 (twelve years ago)
PriceHound character is A+++ as well. So much pathos.
― Matt DC, Friday, 11 October 2013 12:42 (twelve years ago)
Extra points for Fergus McContrary and Julian Abercrombie.
― Deafening silence (DL), Friday, 11 October 2013 12:48 (twelve years ago)
they set up actual accounts for both the pricehounds too

looking at them there is literally about 20 minutes before it drowns in a media twee mudslide so live in the moment imo

It's actually quite difficult to work out who is and isn't taking it seriously.
― Matt DC, Friday, 11 October 2013 13:02 (twelve years ago)
The original post is perfect, the response rapidly annoying. Plus ca change.
― Deafening silence (DL), Friday, 11 October 2013 13:14 (twelve years ago)
oh my god all those accounts have been created and people are interacting them, this meta wormhole is too much
― lex pretend, Friday, 11 October 2013 13:15 (twelve years ago)
wait that didnt actually happen, right?

No, it's all made up but some people seem to miss this key point!
― Alba, Friday, 11 October 2013 14:49 (twelve years ago)
hahaha this whole thing is beautiful

This is amazing. Dying at William Price-Hound's plaintive "leave me alone" msgs.

iirc your twitter handle can't have 'twitter' in it?

(I appreciate Nick wasn't being 100% earnest in his suggestion btw)

so apparently charging three bucks for a major ios app update is savagery, or something
― Autumn Almanac, Friday, 25 October 2013 01:00 (twelve years ago)
Gladly paid it for it to be no longer so fucking ugly
― sktsh, Friday, 25 October 2013 09:01 (twelve years ago)
so is there a way to go back to the pics not auto showing up
― twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 29 October 2013 19:42 (twelve years ago)
this is an affront to everything twitter stands for
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 22:31 (twelve years ago)
i hate it
― polyphonic, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 22:33 (twelve years ago)
It didn't used to be the case that every tweet said "Reply - Retweet - Favorite ...More" under it, right? I thought that only popped up if you're hovering, or maybe it was just symbols before? It looks awful.
― polyphonic, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 23:11 (twelve years ago)
yeah every tweet is super cluttered, almost as objectionable as seeing ads imo
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 29 October 2013 23:13 (twelve years ago)
i thought the blue lines were gonna be bad but they turned out to be fine, this on the other hand is just too much too much i say
― twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 29 October 2013 23:14 (twelve years ago)
i still refuse to accept the blue lines, they make too much of a sequential muddle of conversations that are playing out with multi-tweet replies.
― Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 23:16 (twelve years ago)
The way the blue lines mess with chronology is the thing that bugs me about them. The lines themselves don't bother me.
― polyphonic, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 23:18 (twelve years ago)
entire site looks like it's been run thru blingy
― zvookster, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 23:39 (twelve years ago)
ok like 5 hours later i have made peace with the new updates
― twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 30 October 2013 03:57 (twelve years ago)
story of basically any update ever
The pictures thing is stupidly annoying. Seriously glad it wasn't in force a couple of days ago when every fucker in my timeline was retweeting that Davie Moyes picture though.
― ailsa, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 08:46 (twelve years ago)
Every fucker in my timeline is posting 'Diana's Ghost Tells Kate She's Too Skinny'. Over and over again.
― hatcat marnell (suzy), Wednesday, 30 October 2013 08:52 (twelve years ago)
are you all using the actual website
― cozen, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 09:31 (twelve years ago)
I use it on my laptop. So?
― hatcat marnell (suzy), Wednesday, 30 October 2013 10:33 (twelve years ago)
didn't know it was so common; just assumed most ppl used dedicated clients
― cozen, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 10:59 (twelve years ago)
i used to use a thingy that popped up like a chatbox on firefox then i stopped using firefox and nothing else seemed as good as the web version
don't want a separate program running and slowing everything down
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 11:08 (twelve years ago)
The Twitter extension for Chrome is pretty good. That and Instapaper are the only extensions I ever use.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 11:14 (twelve years ago)
dedicated clients are bullshit fyi

??? I never look at twitter at anything other than tweetbot. I don't see how anyone could use twitter without mute filters.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 11:35 (twelve years ago)
tbf ilx has trained me up pretty good in just ignoring people

My iPhone and laptop have zero iTunes activated, and I don't really do apps. It took me an age to set up email on my phone because I live in absolute horror of getting a grand in roaming charges if I happen to travel somewhere. Though I will grant that in 2013, this fear is possibly not rational.

i've been using this for the web version. nice enough
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 30 October 2013 11:43 (twelve years ago)
No kidding. Going clientless seems inconceivable.
