Twitter C/D

this little bird tweets when you move your finger up and down on it

dud

If Twitter were to disappear tomorrow, what would take its place?

carrier pigeons

Weibo

vomiting, diarrhea, restless leg syndrome

"For anyone who has to lay off employees—perhaps for a founder in particular—it is a painful, soul-searing process."

I'm sure he's crying himself to sleep over the little people who were hired when he wasn't running the company.

outside of the "it makes me feel weird to 'heart' grim things" and journalists bemoaning the loss of their "but my god the fave has so many meanings" i really don't fucking understand this

hoos not understanding other people being mad, film at 11

WE INVENTED ALL THESE CONTEXTUAL SEMANTIC MEANINGS FOR A BUTTON

THEN

THEY CHANGED THE BUTTON

twitter copying the facebook/instagram model makes me wonder who will be the first to acquire it

Ugh

lol hoos wth is that table

ive never looked at anyone's favourites on twitters before. always was a little confused by the fav.

im really not very good at social media

where is the pity fav? pretty sure that accounts for most of my fav'd tweets tbh

the most common use of the fav is prob "i acknowledge yr comment"

yeah faving as this polite thing you do when you get in a convo is a development I've never loved

it's like SBs becoming FPs all over again

lol hoos wth is that table

tweted by noted "digital journalist" (and actual journalist) al3x h0ward aka d1g1phil3 as evidence of 'all that twitter has subsumed into the 'like',' practically spitting out the consonants onto his keybard

Feels like more proof that Twitter Inc people don't use Twitter

but like who made it whats it for

I'll use it for the same thing regardless what it's called.

stet otm

and if Snapchat is any indication, we're moving away from likes and follows generally, so this new heart is going in the wrong direction.

Also much of the time the favorite button is about conversation-ending, saying "I hear you even if I'm not going to reply." That ain't the same as heart.
