- RugnirViking 7y agoIf you follow somebody, does it ever not show you their tweet? I'm genuinely curious to hear more about their system.
- jki275 7y agoAbsolutely.
- namirez 7y agoDoes Twitter shadow-ban people whom you're following? I thought that's only for accounts that one is not following.
- MBCook 7y agoUse a 3rd party client like god intended.
- mixedCase 7y agoThe ones that you use Twitter's own site and/or gimped APIs?
- sixstringtheory 7y agoHaven't used Twitter for a year or so now, but last I checked, if you use their Lists instead of the main feed, then tweets are still ordered reverse-chronologically. But in general, agree with your sentiment.
