Twitter C/D

xp yes

I think if you mute the phrase " suggest_activity_tweet " and/or " suggest_recycled_tweet_inline " that helps to remove most of the trash notifications you are referring to.

Just checked, I had these muted already but they're still putting garbage in there.

it helped with my notifications but there are still random topics in my feed

Hilariously twitter doesn't even seem to be able to catalogue these random topics right - I just got "suggested topic: rap" and the tweet was some lefty shitposter joking that Femi's article caused Starmer's approval ratings to drop. Not every black person is a rapper, twitter.

so sick of this guy, not sure if he's real or one of those AI-generated imaginary people

im not a regular mom ceo, im a cool mom ceo

My favourite thing is scrolling past a load of tweets and then scrolling past exactly the same tweets again, this time with an "in case you missed it" heading at the top.

1.) Post tweet.

2.) "Oh, look! A notification of new tweets to be read."

3.) Scroll to top.

4.) It's the tweet I just posted.

I FALL FOR THIS. EVERY. TIME.

What type of world do we live in today, when the woke try & "cancel" Dr. Seuss, while ‘CyberPunk 2077’ is all the rage where "4 types of damage can be inflicted & resisted-Physical, Thermal, EMP & Chemical"

Clearly promoting great Woke wholesome values ?? https://t.co/NLlrLaIW5s pic.twitter.com/zXLIERXLAh

Seems bad.

Twitter’s bad but of Twitter; covid-19, and Modi, I think it’s the least bad

"so sick of this guy, not sure if he's real or one of those AI-generated imaginary people"

That's Dan Price, CEO of payments compnay Gravity Payments that literally no serious ecommerce company uses. He got a bunch of press for lowering his pay and giving employees raises, but there have been serious questions about how true some of that was, plus, apparently he runs his company like a cult, and his ex-wife accused him of absolutely awful torture and abuse, and somehow that has been totally swept under the rug. I had to block him on linkedin in order to stop seeing his shit reposted by everyone I've ever worked with.

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/dec/03/gravity-ceo-dan-price-domestic-violence-accusations

yeah the whole thing was clearly a (successful) stunt to grant him thought leader status

Its rather surprising to me that these allegations haven't popped up again since 2015 or so. How this guy weathered metoo is beyond me. I'm automatically inclined to completely believe anything anyone says against him because look at his fucking hair and his smile.

hes such a minor character

I see Price’s abuse brought up regularly but never with the critical mass to end him, he’s not constantly in the news so he functions like a quote a day calendar for people who read books on entrepreneurship.

i'll take much lower pay if I don't have to make working for a shit company the core part of my identity

meltdown may is back, baby!

who melted

Details, please. Other than reading the rare thread linked here or in a news article, I've been on a Twitter hiatus for about a month. It's been surprisingly easy.

one of the only fun things left about Twitter is watching manic pmc dream girl Kristen Sinema get ratioed to hell every single time she pokes her head up

prob wishing she had done a normal vote

I don't think getting twitter pwned actually hurts any of these powerful assholes' feelings, just peasants being allowed to shout at the king from a distance. Even Trump could just breeze past the legion of sick burn replies.

she did post the picture with the fuck off ring

no obvious meltdowns yet but the political dorks seem to be on a slow burn

Even Trump could just breeze past the legion of sick burn replies.

all evidence we have on subject suggests that no matter how grand the tweeters life they just dont like the negative replies, its human nature really

I think you can cyber bully Chrissy Teigen or even a Representative but once you’re Sinema/Cruz/etc. you’ve had your soul removed to the point where regular people are ants.

people tend to get more fussy and sensitive the more power they acquire! which is pretty funny tbf

i mean trump may not look at his replies but his being is like 90% petty grievance

People on the left are mad at me. People on thd right are mad at me. I must be doing something right!

If you had to guess, what percentage of your followers do you think actually see any given tweet of yours? I don't know if it's 5% or 50% or what

I thought I made a pretty fire tweet about half an hour ago, but the numbers do not uhh bear that out

people tend to like the bad tweets more

some consolation I suppose

i find that it helps to get antagonistic with your followers and confront them on it. i do it regularly, and then it's always like my same 2 irl friends who like it and no one else, lol

last i checked, every time i compose a tweet 100% of my followers receive a text message on their phone containing the text of my tweet, so i guess 100%

People on the left are mad at me. People on thd right are mad at me. I must be doing something right!

literally Kier Starmer

I really miss the gun emoji

Man, no more Nuzzel :/

Yeah, that sucks, I found it very useful. Using Twitter's search to search for only links only among people you follow can get something very vaguely similar, but it's not nearly the same.

Twitter's api is so locked down that it seems worthless, but I considered using something scraping-based like https://github.com/twintproject/twint
to try to roll my own nuzzel. Seems like it should be possible to get all link-based tweets that appear more than once among friends and/or friends-of-friends like that.

This is quite a story. An established opinion newspaper man has a shitpost twitter account.

This account sent me sexualised messages about whether Mary Lou McDonald “turned me on”, the size of my arse and called me a terrorist from the month I started at the Examiner. Since then, I’ve had to go to counselling and the guards. https://t.co/aueLtHkg80

Think this also depends on the leadership around it. Left-wing candidates will gave little support from wreckers in the bureaucracy if the party if a strong left leadership isn't in place.

These results are bad but I’m not sure more left wing candidates would have done any better. Corbyn may have held Hartlepool but hasn’t Labour’s majority been decreasing fir a years now anyway? 1/3

Oops wrong thread

#onethread

well it is a tweet

I know a website where everything is tweets

I keep tweets about how Twitter crop is gone, and while I know what this means, I can't help reading it as "my crop of sweeet tweets, all of them gone! hopefully next year's harvest will be bountiful."

keep *seeing tweets
