Twitter's "hashtag" timeline function was violently protested by netizens, and the official response was made

IT House March 17 news, according to MSPoweruser reported, after Twitter announced a new feature to provide separate labels for algorithms and timelines, has been launched for a large number of users. But after much criticism, Twitter quickly relented.

Twitter's "hashtag" timeline function was violently protested by netizens, and the official response was made

Last week, Twitter rolled out new features to all iOS users and planned to roll them out to Android and web users "soon," but the company didn't quite get the latest changes to the timeline, pushing users again the "Home" tab they had algorithmically derived, and now the "Home page" is once again the default timeline when the app is opened.

In order to get into the chronologically arranged "Latest Tweets" timeline (which many prefer to use), users are forced to swipe to a new timeline tab that coexists with the ubiquitous Home tab, always accidentally sliding to.

After starting to roll out the feature, Twitter was quickly met with protests from users who didn't want to add to the tedium of dealing with two timelines, and surprisingly, Twitter had listened to the concerns of those users.

The social media giant announced in a statement: "We hear your voices — some of you always want to see the latest tweets first." We've brought the timeline back and temporarily canceled the tabbed experience, while we're exploring other options. ”
