Twitter's website has so many annoyances it is no more a pleasure for me to check it. For example:
- Photos are very badly cropped and clicking on the tweet does not diplay them full size anymore. We have to click a second time on the photo.
- Photos are now displayed above the text which somehow makes the bad cropping even worse.
- People who want to post photos have all moved to Instagram anyway. Twitter is an actor, not a victim, of this move. They seem to consider photos as a feature for advertisers, not for users.
- Embedded tweets (retweets with a comment) don't have functionnal links. Clicking them opens the tweet's page in a way that ruins the auto-scrolling of the main stream. The trick against that is to right-click on the embedding tweet's time and open the link in a new tab. WTF, designers?
- If one wants to post a longer text, Twitter leads them to create an account elsewhere. Twitter could easily just display the title and hide the longer text behind a click. WTF, strategists?
Twitter definitely needs a new leadership.
