Is there a trending section on #CoSo? I can't find it.
That's the only thing redeemable about Twitter.
@mcfate
Hmmm. π€
We don't tell our users what they "should" be thinking about.
@mcfate
But isn't having commonality also part of communication?
What does using some sketchy algorithm to assess the "velocity" of one thing or another have to do with either "commonality" or "communication"?
It's nonsense. It's never NOT been nonsense. Twitter will show random phrases as "trending".
@mcfate
I found many great users under the trending tab, many. And if you feel like you are so influenced by it that's on you. But for me, I liked looking at what's trending, because it would typically be a topic I'm following otherwise, and see what others were saying in both sides of the topic.. I like differing opinions, whether I agree or not is up to me.
Nobody cares how you used Twaffle. We don't do things that way.
We advertise "no algorithms". You want an algorithm, you are doomed to frustration on this particular score, I fear.
Just getting over it seems best.
@mcfate
Dude. You're no better that anyone else. Period. I'm not trying to argue, or be a dick, simply asking a question.. You claim to be all welcoming? I've been on here for a bit now and like it just fine, I ask a question about my experience and you go all Douche bag.. If you want to create a good environment for others, try not to be a dick because people like other things, or are asking questions to better their experience.. If you are what to expect in here? Count me out
What? What's any of this have to do with ME?
I give you bad news, you get personally insulting.
I'll stuff you into an oubliette right now, Mouthful. In fifteen minutes, I'm not going to remember you ever existed.
@mcfate
Exactly. Go back to obscurity man.. I don't need you around.
@Chief_Twit I have had that exact same sort of conversation with that exact same person. I kept forgetting to block them. Due to this I have remembered.
