@reality #RIPTwitter [ http://qttr.at/14p9 ] drives people nuts. Seems like always when something changes on Twitter, ppl storm GNU Social.
-
Either way, their PR speak is bullshit. What other purpose besides advertising would such a change serve anyway?
-
@speeddefrost Ordering tweets according to fas & RTs instead of date of publishing could make news disseminate faster ...
-
It /could/, but it /will/ be taken advantage of. All that will do is further blur the lines between real and sponsored content.
-
They're not strictly advertising, sure, but it indirectly and deliberately enables more arrogant forms of it.
-
@speeddefrost Are their any lines? When I (re-)tweet something that has a link, is my tweet not a kind of sponsorship of the links content?
-
@speeddefrost My point is: Twitter is a broadcasting medium, not a social medium. (You don't do conversations their like on SN / GS.)
-
Valid point, but any site with people on it will end up being social whether it intends to or not. If it's process no longer holds legitimacy, /real/ users question the intent and leave. They've been digging their grave for a while now…
-
@speeddefrost You really believe ppl don't want to be like the cute gadget they just bought? They want to, in order for it to function well.

@stpiuzzi interesting didn't know that: " #twitter is deleting tweets with copyright material (gifs, screenshots, videos)"
-
@stpiuzzi the concept of federation is hard to get for many.Also many dont want to hear explanations.Only the easiest& #fastest way for them
