I don't think users want to get "robbed" of their posts like this.
There also is no embed functionality. For Twitter type shoutouts it is absolutely vital that they can be embedded around the web.
- CyberRabbi 6y agoUsername in status url and “embedibility” are good features to have but i don’t think they are causal in determining whether or not an twitter clone reaches critical mass. Maybe they are though. You should build an alternative!
- saagarjha 6y agoFun fact: the user part of a Twitter URL isn’t important. You can replace it with any other user.
