It took those idiots 4 years to admit that, wow. I know there are perverse incentives at play in favour of the bullshit “algorithmic” feed (you can’t tell when you reach the end, so you end up spending more time on the app and more “engagement” for the bean counters) but in case of Twitter the real-time nature of it is literally the main purpose of the product (and what made it successful in the first place) so I would’ve expected common sense to prevail... apparently that was too much to ask.
