see #5

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.

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.

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

F♯ A♯ (∞), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 22:37 (eight years ago) link

Wonder how low the stock will go. It's been quite a long slide to nowhere

ugh - 140 chracters = its about energy and concentration of content. I always feel I'll be there for an hour and it never happens.

xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 6 January 2016 14:53 (eight years ago) link

i think a read more feature is kinda fine idk

i tried to make a poll about my 2016 style but both my options were considerably longer than the max character limit so now im all in favor of this change

-san (Lamp), Wednesday, 6 January 2016 17:47 (eight years ago) link

Will be interesting to see how apps will implement it. I'm sure it will make the Twitter homepage even more unusable than it already is. You should never use it anyway.

Jeff, Wednesday, 6 January 2016 17:53 (eight years ago) link

itll just be a lil link prob

lag∞n, Wednesday, 6 January 2016 18:51 (eight years ago) link

I think the best possible outcome is ignoring one retweet from someone you follow instead of a series of fifty because they found some numbered story worthy of retweeting

μpright mammal (mh), Wednesday, 6 January 2016 18:59 (eight years ago) link

wonder if twitter will provide stats on how many opens those get
