- zadler 3y agoTwitter is doing great.
- Xorlev 3y agoThere is no war in Ba Sing Se. Just saying it doesn't make it true. Twitter has a long way to go to regain advertiser confidence, and Blue is barely a footnote.
- concordDance 3y agoHe's probably thinking of it from a user experience point of view, where there are lots of shiny new features and no big downsides.
- warning26 3y agoIs it though? The new verified system was rolled out really poorly. There should have been a migration path from legacy to new verified, but instead they just unverified everyone (including obviously government accounts that under the new rule should retain a grey check).
- concordDance 3y agoThat's true, but I don't think it effected the average user much.
- d23 3y agoI must be using a different site from you. Letting people pay to get boosted has turned the top of every thread into a hive of emoji-pasting, cruel, low-effort cretins.
- concordDance 3y agoEveryone's twitter feed is different. Mine doesn't have that.
- dang 3y agoPlease don't post unsubstantive and/or flamebait comments. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35920114 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35920114.
- isbjorn16 3y agoWith respect, you don't think it's substantive to point out that the new CEO has a rather tall job in order, using colloquial language? I think we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
- dang 3y agoI think it was both unsubstantive and flamebait. None of the boo vs. yay wars that plague this topic are interesting; it's really just "I feel boo" and "I feel yay". We're trying for something else here.
