One thing I've noticed is that the app periodically switches my preference from "Latest tweets" back to "Top tweets". I'm not sure if it's just a bug, but I wouldn't be surprised if that behavior was intentional.
- inetknght 6y agoIt happens on a lot of social media where there's a sort by "top" vs "newest". It's a dark pattern and I'm convinced it's both intentional and cargo-culted. I recall having the issue with Facebook about a decade ago when they first rolled out "top" posts in favor of newest.
- matthewheath 6y agoI believe this is intentional.
- noah_buddy 6y agoIt is intentional and if you look on the app when you're switching between the two it even says "We'll switch you back to top tweets after a little while" or something along those lines. True jerk design.
