> Unfortunately they've now ported one of the most offensive feature from mobile to desktop. The "Home" timeline, with tweets out of order. And the real kicker; you can still select "latest Tweets first" but then the app literally undoes your preference every week or two, forcing you back to their "Home" view. It's offensive.
Does Twitter show the same posts multiple times right next to each other? Because I’m getting a lot of that on Facebook right now. Not that I actually like either platform [1], but they are the de facto way of keeping up with everyone.
[1] I’m kinda glad Twitter doesn’t force me to have an account, no account makes it so much easier to not get sucked into the reply-rants.
Facebook doesn't switch me back. I've been in chronological mode for ~3 years now. I think it's per-device though so you do have to set it if you login somewhere new.
I can say Facebook does switch this back every time I visit, and sometimes switching it to 'latest' literally causes the site to cease loading posts after one or two pages.
They might have changed it since I left Facebook but they absolutely did change that setting back frequently in the past. My frustration with that is one of the reasons I stopped using the site.
Sounds just like Facebook now.
