also idk what you mean with this tweet
but if you search @DrEricDing's *handle* (not his name) then you get lots of tweets by him. still the CDC banner at the top, but it doesn't look like censorship https://twitter.com/DanielleFong/status/1231266425161080832 …pic.twitter.com/sBt4a6Kp3y

It’s a form of censorship of the obvious searches don’t work or misrepresent you. It’s also a form of censorship if your tweets and notifications have an imposed latency of 20m. Think of how infuriating latency is on long distance calls!

Replying to @DanielleFong @HolyAvengerOne and
agreed on the latency I think the search thing is actually true of everyone. if I search `Malcolm Ocean` the first results are people @-mentioning me or talking about me. Same if I search `Malcolm Ocean meta` or `
@Malcolm_Ocean meta` whereas `from:malcolm_ocean meta` gets mepic.twitter.com/aEmdoIQ6pX

Oh actually when I search
@DrEricDing's handle & coronavirus, then I actually do get tweets from him. So he's actually less censored in this sense than *I* am.https://twitter.com/Malcolm_Ocean/status/1232555340354461698/ …Malcolm 🌎cean added,

So: I agree that these search results phenomena are confusing, & potentially misleading (CDC doesn't seem particularly trustable) but it seems risky to use "censorship" for this when it seems to be business as usual. It dilutes the term "censorship" & gives off a paranoid vibe

what should we call it? timeline exile?

Replying to @DanielleFong @HolyAvengerOne and
Yeah, probably what we want to do is encourage more people to use Latest Tweets and http://realtwitter.com (sorted by latest). Those timelines are still completely unfiltered afaik (you & Eric are close to the top of both, since you've tweeted recently) Hit the
then Latestpic.twitter.com/rQy5qSEAnT

(& note that it'll revert you to algo-determined after awhile, so you need to consciously set it to Latest again. this is kind of obnoxious honestly)

it's basically intolerable imho. someone has to innovate out of it
