Hey, it’s the second-most challenging problem in CS, next to paying women the same as men. (Or so you’d think given it took them this long to figure out how to do it.)

I use Twitter.

I’m glad they’re giving us the option for a sane, predictable feed again.

They should follow up by banning the harassing fascist assholes.

It’s the thing that makes every Xeni Jardin article 15 pages long.

Are they starting to feel the pressure of people switching to Mastodon?

I really had to check the date on this post and these tweets, it seems like they are rushing out a new feature after strong protests from their users. If I recall correctly it was years ago they ditched any option for a straight chronological feed. It seems like this is a hasty response to the uproar that followed that decision. Except that they told their users to suck it back then.

Weird…

Yes, to follow @dog_rates

Ok, but I’m a completist and hate to miss a reference. Where’s the option to start at the beginning and read it all?

“more relevant and useful”
