I think this is a big waste of space if you're already following someone, what they're talking about should be the primary focus. I wonder if they'll start with the view scrolled down a bit how cover photos on Facebook do.
- cf0ed2aa-bdf5 14y agoThe iPhone App is the best example of this waste of space. That banner image takes up about 1/3 of the screen, leaving 2/3 for UI elements, actual information like follower/following and tweet count and one single tweet. It's not only a waste of space if you are already following someone but also if you want to discover new people to start following. What users are talking about should be the primary focus in every case - whether you are already following the user or not.
- Karunamon 14y agoThe normal response to this would be "You get an app if you're more interested in the content", but then I realized that Twitter is going out of their way to kill off apps. Somewhat distressing.
- smokinjoe 14y agoDon't get carried away, if they truly wanted to absolutely kill off apps, they'd just close their API.
- Karunamon 14y agoSeems like a gradual winding down to me. First a bunch of onerous and (frankly utterly fucktarded) UI restrictions which completely limit the utility of any multi-social-network clients (this was the one that really grinds my gears), then the hard cap on the number of users that any one API user can have.. what's next?
