I know that fixing/changing/upgrading things at scale is much harder that what most people think, but man... they have done nothing to fix these type of issues, and don't tell me is not something easy to fix.
The other day a journo complained on twitter about the problem of dealing with crappy messages: https://twitter.com/sarahfrier/status/1020512187322789888 https://twitter.com/sarahfrier/status/1020512187322789888
So in less than an hour, I had a prototype to help to filter those type of messages: https://www.dropbox.com/s/z914olzgn68v660/Screenshot%202018-07-21%2008.57.01%20%281%29.png?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/z914olzgn68v660/Screenshot%202018-...
If a random dev can do this, why they can't fix it?
I like twitter, and I'm genuinely curious why some of these seemingly easy to fix problems are not taken care.
- acover 8y agoIsn't the issue with spam prevention is they adapt to your changes?
- pnevares 8y agoWhat are we supposed to be seeing in your second screenshot? I just see an array of DMs, what's being filtered?
- taytus 8y agoYeah, sorry. You are right is not showing anything else besides the API result. But is trivial to return a secondary, already parsed array. I haven't used the API in a while and was just seeing if I could achieve that.
