I don’t understand the HB obsession with not creating accounts or reading Twitter. I haven’t logged into Twitter in years I stay logged in. Also reading Twitter is trivial people have consumed countless billions of tweets. Yet for some reason programmers on HN struggle with it.
- aendruk 5y agoTwitter destroyed in myopic greed what was once a sensible service that shared in our vision of an open web. The “struggle” you refer to is protest.
- recursive 5y agoI am just as confused as to how literally multiple people have figured out how to use and navigate Twitter. I have probably failed at many other things in my life too though. Maybe it's me.
- kevin_thibedeau 5y agoIt lets them track you across sites that use their iframes.
- ryan93 5y agoScary. Patagonia might show me an ad when i read the WSJ since i follow their twitter account.
- BuyMyBitcoins 5y agoWhere I go on the Internet outside of Twitter dot com is none of their business.
- ryan93 5y agoIt’s how sites with billions in expenses are run without having to charge directly. I never click on ads so google and Twitter are free for me.
