Does anyone at Twitter? Whenever I open the official app, I feel like I'm attacked by middle-manager KPI hacks. "Follow this!" "Try that!" "Ad!" "More topics for you!" "Ad!" "People who ate a sandwich also liked this!" "Rando replied to another rando" "Topics!" "More Topics!" "Toooooopics we beg you!" (and "see less often" is as effective as door close elevator buttons)
In this cacophony I can't find tweets from the people I follow. If I wasn't using a (dying) 3rd party app that removes all of this nonsense, I wouldn't be using Twitter any more.
The ads aren't a problem with some adblocking extension. What is more annoying is the "Trends". I keep getting way too many artificially inflated political keywords thrown at me. I tried to avoid that by following primarily non-political accounts and block any tinfoil nutjob i encounter, but no use. That's why i avoid Twitter now.
Can't read it because of the forced-login growth hacks. I'm already effectively addicted to twitter on my personal computer and phone. Do they really need to make sure they make me log in on one more device?
I mean, wouldn't be surprised if the CEO has an alt. Have you seen how much shit he got for that one joke that was quoting another joke that was slightly anti-white?
