I'm sure "we made the site that depends on infinite consumption of promoted tweets extremely extremely finite" is a good decision probably

Twitter measures user seconds because that's how long you are able to use it before it stops working

The fact that it happened on the 1st of the month feels like too much of a coincidence. Something somewhere didn't get paid.

Also, I never had a Twitter, but there would be a few specific accounts I would load up a few times a week to check out, like @dril and @TallBart, plus a couple Ukraine related accounts that I’d check out more occasionally.

I’d also sometimes see an account in either this thread or elsewhere on SA, that I’d see an interesting or funny post from and I’d go to it just scroll through a bunch of their more recent posts, and then probably never look at it again.

Can’t do any of that poo poo now because of the login prompt, although I can still see embeds on SA.

I’m sure I’m far from the only one to use Twitter like this, almost seems like this would be a valuable audience to throw ads at, but what do I know, I’m not renowned brain genius Elon Musk.

Actually this thread does everyone a service by maxing out our allowance and shutting Twitter down. Mental health-wise we will all benefit from it.

Namaste.

What an absurd way to solve that problem. It’s like each decision is made specifically to make their product harder to use.
