@april Could you explain what that means to non-programmers?

@Floxi they claimed to have removed the information about what client your tweet comes from, but they still include it in the response they send to you. it's just hidden, and badly.

@april Thanks, I'm still seeing that info on the non-updated Twitter Android App as well.

@april @Floxi I almost wonder if they’ve left it in the response to prevent the change from breaking 3rd party twitter clients, but it kinda defeats the point of removing it at all if it’s still included in the response

@dylawelt @april @Floxi or it is an half hearted attempt to say work has been done :)

@april @Floxi that’s hilarious. To me it just looks lazy.

@payloadspecialist @april @Floxi

I can't really see the point, if they are only half doing it.

@april @Floxi and it was semi-predictable from his first "hair up my butt" tweet. Displayed data means it was queried and stored. Now seems like a very strange time to go digging into the query and storage parts. Like repainting the hull in a storm.
