In no way is that not your fault. None whatsoever.
I do agree that a filtering mechanism would be MUCH appreciated, however.
- steveitis 16y agoYou are a coder, aren't you? Let me restate it more precisely: The fact that my needs are not being met is their fault. The fact that I have those needs is mine. My use case, and those of many others, requires the ability to 'follow' others and still filter their 'useful' postings from their 'non-useful' postings. This is 'my fault', in that I require more from the service than they are either willing or able to provide at this time. Twitter has reduced my ability to use the service, in the way that I would most like to, by limiting their API and preventing screen scrapers from functioning in a legal and non-harmful way. None of this is any way my fault. I still think my original phrasing was more concise, if not as explicit.
