Not everything needs to be an absolute rule, this totally looks like a small bug on Twitter's part, and if it takes like weeks to fix then you can decide "okay that's a little more suspicious". What's the point of making this particular moment an immediate, gigantic moral issue?
- fartcannon 4y agoI prefer the other way around. Twitter is probably acting bad. If they update it immediately, apologize, then we can assume its not an issue. What value do you get by giving them the benefit of doubt? You just give them a way to gently manipulate you if you assume every little thing that's bad is an accident.
- Osmose 4y agoThe alternative to "Twitter is acting bad" doesn't have to be "Twitter is completely innocent", it can be "Huh that sucks, wonder what caused that". You don't have to make an immediate judgement call on the morality of every tiny bug. The value I get from that is not spending energy judging everything immediately as soon as I see it, which, in a world with social media, is a significant savings.
- fartcannon 4y agoI would prefer to draw attention to their bad behaviour. I'll expend my energy. You can enjoy the benefits.
- spicybright 4y agoIt seems like people many people today aren't satisfied with saying "I don't know" when it's the most reasonable answer. Every little action apparently has to be blamed on something (usually based on very little or no evidence). It doesn't even matter why as long as twitter is aware of it, and it gets fixed soon.
