When there's a gif in a discussion, it's like 3 taps on mobile to play it despite having a play icon on it. First time you touch it, it just expands the tweet.

When there's a gif in a discussion, it's like 3 taps on mobile to play it despite having a play icon on it. First time you touch it, it just expands the tweet. Then it expands the video. Then it actually plays the video.
Hilariously bad ui.
- wlesieutre 9y agoYou say "bad UI," twitter says "increased engagement!" Potato, potahto.
- dmix 9y agoI know you're joking but that's still a bullshit metric and a risky one to make if they are looking at only taps + total time. It's not increasing ad revenue, extending meaningful engagement time, or user happiness. Having worked in analytics for a long time I've seen countless examples of metrics like these being needlessly optimized so I find it harder to laugh at.
