I am going to log in to Twitter some day soon to hassle my followers to apply for my soon-to-be-former coworker’s job, it’s been months now

Anyway my worst opinions to date are all in LiveJournal comment threads I think
mine are on ilx, and in the minds of anyone I've ever spoken to

Is there any way to mute a picture or should I just go for “like a Renaissance painting”?
― Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Monday, 11 June 2018 06:55 (five years ago) link
right?
― flappy bird, Monday, 11 June 2018 06:56 (five years ago) link
It has become completely intolerable.
The timeline is essentially:
Here is a basic art / politics take on a picture of Trump.Here is a basic take on why your basic take is basicLook at this attention-seeking racist / gunfucker! Look at them again. And again. Make them a minor celebrity. Bark bark bark.I see you follow Liz Bruenig - here's five random priests that she likesSelfies of people you don't know but share two followers with
No amount of cat pictures is making it worthwhile atm.
― Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Monday, 11 June 2018 07:31 (five years ago) link
I've been ruthless with it and unfollowed nearly 100 people/accounts from people who are repeating things and simply adding noise tbh.
By 'liking', ppl I follow - and some that don't follow me back - usually are adding very good funny things to my timeline, but only to an extent so I don't get any particular thing in a high volume so I was only somewhat aware of the Renaissance painting business. It wasn't in my face.
Takes a while but it's perfect at the moment to just get a flavour of things. The selfies from ppl I don't know is the only thing I feel like I have to tolerate.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 11 June 2018 08:43 (five years ago) link
My tl is ok because I unfollow/mute as necessary and really don’t interact with many people but the wider site is fucking awful - just endless shit and negativity. I have no idea why I spend so much time on there when it does nothing for me.
― gyac, Monday, 11 June 2018 09:07 (five years ago) link
ruthless pruning is the only way. I barely saw any selfies until my friends had a baby and I can just about tolerate one baby on the tl
― ogmor, Monday, 11 June 2018 09:59 (five years ago) link
I get almost none of the junk ShariVari mentioned, but it might be due to my persistent disinterest in directly following political ppl
― mh, Monday, 11 June 2018 13:58 (five years ago) link
Yes, three quarters of the people I follow are journalists so I only have myself to blame really.

twitter rules if you just follow cool people, imo

I dont follow any of the political lads on twitter, or the ones where they find a mean-spirited cunts tweet and say imagine being this cunt. Nothing wrong with that for those that want it but it doesnt brighten my day

On the political side of things , Big Nev Southall is good though, for using it in a positive way

Muted RTs on a friend because he kept RTing the president's tweets, usually with a comment of "Whatever, Cheeto."
Now he's reposting screen grabs of the president's tweets.

it's not that frustrating, k3vin. you just don't want to face the important minutiae of discussion(twenty post thread occurs)

Can you really not tailor your notifications to notify you only of replies and retweets of your own tweets (plus dm's, follows/unfollows etc)? Is it true that you are forced to deal with notifications about various convos people you follow might be engaging in? That is outrageous if so. How do you guys handle this.
― i am updating my User Agreement and Privacy Policy (rip van wanko), Thursday, 14 June 2018 04:10 (five years ago) link
i have not gotten those notifications
― sprout god (lag∞n), Thursday, 14 June 2018 04:11 (five years ago) link
I don't have notifications turned on at all.
― pplains, Thursday, 14 June 2018 04:12 (five years ago) link
xp huh... Google tells me it was part of a rollout of new features from early last year. On my phone it'll just say that I have a new notification and I have to click just to find out if the tweet(s) is even directed to me, it sucks. I do see how it drives more traffic to the site though.
