Yeah, they are there. I like the interface usability and look personally.

"For you" was already there, it just wasn't a tab. I can't get how clunky the layout is on Android now. To refresh the timeline, sometimes there is a "new" bubble that pops up, there's a giant bird top center surrounded by nothing, and a home button. They all seem to work about 1/3 of the time. It's just so ugly and bad

yes, its not good. I can get new tweets to load by either hitting the home button, tapping the following tab up top, or dragging down on the tweets. However, a good percentage of the times those options don't work and i have to repeat them. And then there is the thing where it keeps switching back to the For You tab when I open the app randomly. I thought I saw someone say that will be fixed in a later update.

I don’t know how people can use twitter if it’s not in chronological order.

I'm fine with the options, but every other time I open it, it reverts to for you, which I never ever want to see. Just keep it on what it was on last. IS IT THAT HARD.

Now threats of UN sanctions for Twitter. I appreciate that they've also declared themselves the deciders of what is and isn't appropriate for Twitter. Very dictatorial.

#blueanon is really pulling out all the stops now that they have less control over the platform. Very rageish

I'm an Android user and I have all of that, along with drag down to refresh

How exactly does the UN sanction twitter?

You mean the EU, right?

I support both the EU and the UN in sanctioning twitter until they restore 3rd party app access.

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #1984 on:** January 24, 2023, 03:02:36 PM »

Yes the EU.

Didn't hear much from them when the gay people off of buildings tossers were having a free run on Twitter (and may still be) . . .

DerpCon One has been declared.

#blueanon's favorite censors are now moving out of the shadows and publicly declaring themselves the deciders of what is or isn't the truth and what is or isn't harmful.

On the positive side at least your paranoid conspiratorial control freaks aren't as likely to be browbeating and threatening Twitter behind the scenes . . . but I'm sure you guys are chubbed up now about the public declarations of potential censorship.

On the second part, the hyper conpsiratorial control freaks didn't like it when someone was saying they were full of crap on something, or making fun of their beloved Joe Biden (one example) so they sought to censor/shadowban, what have you. At the same time they had no problem with the worst people in the world continuing to use Twitter as a social media platform.

A bit wordy, but #blueanongE is often tragically slow on the uptake

Dax, I agree with you that Twitter was a complete and total cesspool before Elon took over. I also didn't like some of the accounts appearing on my timeline after Elon took over. Choose something else to freak out about because I don't think this is something you'll get a lot of pushback on.

Easier for my eyes to not do dark mode

steve dave · « **Reply #1995 on:** January 25, 2023, 08:21:02 AM »

lmao, I was thinking about this earlier and decided rusty was intentionally trying to draw attention to him not using dark mode (because of how rusty is) and was coming here just now to throw those accusations at the feet of the jury. But, alas, he succeeded before I got here.
