And because of the idiotic way the limit was implemented, a typical twitter user will burn through their allotment of tweets in minutes.
See, every tweet viewed counts against your limit. The tweets above and below the one you wanted to read, 'recommended' tweets their algorithm wants to show you, the invisible tweets just offscreen ready to be scrolled into view that were pre-fetched for performance that you might never get to see if you close the app or do a search or otherwise change context.
Tweets you've already seen! Scroll back to re-read a tweet? That counts. Literally doing anything on the app or webpage hammers their servers with data requests that count against your limit.
Even if you paid for verification.
dont act so high and mighty over twitter we literally have a post limit here
change your icon/pfp and put something coherent in your blog description or you're going to get blocked bcs people think you're a bot
this site is built around reblogs, so please actually reblog posts(especially art and fics!!)
you can set your likes and follows to private
checkmarks here are a meme and mean nothing
follower counts are private and we like it that way, so get used to not judging people by that metric
drama and discourse is boring, use your blacklist and block button liberally
DON'T CENSOR YOURSELF!! we can swear and say kill and make fun of corporations all we want, and if you tiktok-ify your tags people who have things blacklisted for whatever reason will still see them, and people who want to see that content won't be able to find it!! spell words out normally, you won't get in trouble!!
tumblr live is sketchy as hell and full of fake accounts, if you decide to use it anyway may god have mercy on your soul o7

2015: New Zealand holds a vote to change their flag due to its similarity to Australia's, leading to the submission of the 'Lazer Kiwi' flag. Designer Lucy Gray said her inspiration was that "Australia has a lot of animals that can kill you, so New Zealand should get one too"
CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW DIFFERENT THIS IS??? because as someone who works in digital marketing, my jaw literally dropped.
When I put out an ad for a client on Facebook, I can target like... new moms in their 30s who are looking for furniture within a 10-mile radius. Or people who have an anniversary coming up. People who have just moved. People who are in a new relationship. People who have elementary school kids and tend to vote Republican. People who have liked certain Pages. It's absolutely unnerving.
