No longer will you be smart enough to get your own tweets you might like, they will now flood your timeline with those things they want you to like via Algos.

Pretty sure it'll be opt in/out, if it's even true at all.

Instagram is where all the kids go nowadays. Twitter is about as cool as facebook now.

The CEO of twitter denies that it's gonna change. Probably because of the backlash.

the "kids" were never big into twitter. most millennials-and-younger twitter accounts are abandoned after a flurry of initial tweets of the "kewl, i'm on twitter!" variety.

twitter has always struck me as the most adult-as-in-mature-not-porn of the various social media mediums. journalists, in particular, have made twitter what it is.

Yeah .... see, that wasn't the joke, sorry. I'm not remotely anti-DB so that should have been somewhat instructive.

I like BR and DB, but they both are responsible for running terrible board memes. :lol:
