ben grosser @bengrosserHappy to announce my latest project: Twitter Demetricator! Follower, like, notification counts (and many more) all disappear. Try out Twitter without the numbers and see what happens when you can no longer judge yourself or others in metric terms. https://bengrosser.com/projects/twitter-demetricator/ … pic.twitter.com/oMVZ8oYzg82 replies 0 retweets 5 likesShow this thread -

SladeVerified account @SladeWhat Twitter needs, more urgently than an edit button, is a "NO RT" opt-in where *only your followers can see a certain tweet* when checked. Like going private for individual tweets. This would't fix everything but it would go a long way to making this platform tolerable and fun.2 replies 1 retweet 3 likesShow this thread -

Loading seems to be taking a while.
