My most despised (feature) of Twitter on desktop is that purposeful delay to alerts, where it blinks for a splitsecond and then the little colored alert icon disappears for a solid 3 to 5 seconds only to appear again this time correctly and permanently
It is just so annoying that they would do such a thing, I am sure that they have a/b tested it, I don't care it drives me insane, just make it work properly tho I am sure that they have also taken onto account people like me whom despise it, yet not enough to leave the platform
Just an overall worsening of user experience

- lupire 4y agoYou give them away too much credit for intent and competence. They probably have a fast alert based on some cache, and a real alert that takes longer to fetch the real data.
