  It was an observation that Twitter most likely uses algorithms to curate each individual feed, so any given reader is likely to sense a different trend. Very much on point for HN.

    From the HN guidelines: Don't be snarky. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html So. Could you have made the same point without snark?
