forget all that shit about Twitter "revolutions", I guess

$ wins

as always

Loving how they think self-regulation will get them off the hook btw

i never understood why some crazy aspie dudes haven't gotten funding from google to make an open source but interactive with the original facebook or twitter, if only to scuttle rival ships

It's called identi.ca and it looks and works like you'd expect

Will go check it out, thanks

gawd the twitter spambots are out.of.control these days

"different ideas about the contours of freedom of expression" is such an Orwellian phrase. I kinda see what they're doing, but c'mon twitter guys, be less creepy.

I am guessing that as I am thinking of registering with Twitter it must now no longer be cool and is basically on the way out.

yah man u got to get on wen

enjoy

how come spammers never RT if u want to ingratiate yrself to someone u should RT wake up spammers

twitter is losing the war against spammers huh

mostly feel resentful at the morons that make spamming worthwhile by clicking the links or whatever

every day I get followed by accounts that are deleted by the end of the day

um so has anyone else's twitter suddenly undergone a drastic design change? i knew there was a new twitter in the works bcz of something some dude mentioned in passing but i would have expected a 'would you like to switch to new twitter' option tbh.

it is the first time i have felt the kind of internet user outrage this sort of thing elicits, it does just seem kinda worse, & leave a lot of space un-used while hiding or needlessly subdividing stuff like followers, &c

i dont have the new one yet but it did start forcing me to use the mobile site on my ipad the other day which is p annoying since it blows

new one started rolling out months ago btw, not sure why it always takes twitter so long to do these things

but like i had just got used to 'activity': what the hell is this distinction between 'interactions' and 'mentions' going to add to my bleedin' user experience

and they haven't even got rid of infinite scroll, which was the thing that sucked most about the last design.

so yeah, i too am experiencing for the first time this 'internet user outrage' feeling - i actually almost held off on tweeting about the upgrade because i normally get really pissed off by people whining about a free internet service changing something cosmetic rather than terms-of-service-breaking.

(then my desire to be possibly the first person in my twitter circle to talk about some new piece of news won out)

interactions = mentions + follows + retweets + favourites

btw I quite like it, but I don't need the discover tab, the trends and plugs are completely useless to me

Twitter stores full iPhone contact list for 18 months, after scan

re this new design, how do i see all the tweets in one timeline from the people i follow? or has this gone now.

What do you mean? That's the default view

oh yeah, it was all the way down the screen. didn't see it.

i just thought i would bump this thread to say, i think twitter is pretty good! probably if i have posted itt before it is just to say that i am confused by it or something. i started playing with it maybe six months ago & it is neatly integrated into my life, now. i know this has probably been registered, probably after it was invented, but it seems like so much a more efficient, less multivalently-messy, communicative tool than any of the other comparable platforms. like in being disproportionately-content heavy, w/fewer sprawling personal dimensions. the democratic thing about how the internet usefully minimises human barriers like 'status', or even charisma, or whatever, in favour of a meritocracy of information & content, is really prominent w/it. there just seem to be lots of interesting dimensions to it. there was a thing rare basement said about how it was a platform which was (badly remembering & paraphrasing, here) proving women are funny, ie in comparison to various other media & their awkward limitations or segregations on participation.

it's good, i rescind or at least tamper any trash talking i contributed upthread

Has anyone else noticed it being really glitchy over the past couple of days?

In what way?

Just taking ages to load older tweets, sometimes not loading at all... don't know if it's something on my end, but no other sites are acting up.

Weird, it's all fine for me

this might have something to do with it (for geeks only), but the "single tweet display page" alone loads 2MB of data:

new twitter is a completely over engineered mess

when i click a link to a tweet, why am i shown my own profile for a moment and then redirected to the tweet display? bad engineering, thats why

yes i have noticed that too, like why try so hard to be an app, just be happy to be website, be cool
