Buzz AndersenOne thing I am always surprised at when people discuss Twitter/Mastodon clients is that there are apparently still so many people who attempt to consume every post in their timeline. I pretty much gave up any pretense of treating my timeline like an inbox years ago.
(Not an argument for algorithmic timelines at all BTW. I just don’t care that much about rock solid timeline position restoration because I don’t even pretend to follow everything that happens on here.)
Christopher Masto@buzz It's less about being a completionist and more about the annoyance of being in the middle of something and having it all fwoosh away, for me. If I'm going to put up with computers, I expect them to be able to perform tasks like keeping track of a position.
@masto True, that is annoying. That brief moment of seeing something, going “Oh, what’s this?” and then BOOM, bye!
