Okay Twitter Top Articles (nee nuzzel) is ~~good~~ It’s almost surely the thing that’s going to keep me subscribed to Twitter Blue long term. (needs an RSS feed and/or a “email this to me” button tho) — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

The True Twitter Blue power move is to hit Tweet, then read your tweet and the undo send counter spins down and see a tpyo, then hit the Send Tweet Now button anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

I wonder how much twitter would charge to just get rid of ads, not just on publisher partner sites, but on twitter itself. I’d consider it, especially if it came with a verifiable no tracking no data collection guarantee. — PolitiTweet.org

How many times will Microsoft try to make lightweight windows happen? I’m guessing at least yearly as long as its getting pantsed by ChromeOS in the education market. https://t.co/DEUGwdw0mp — PolitiTweet.org

According to @andrumarino, our statistics (which with podcasts are always sketchy) show that at least 36 people have listened to the Vergecast on a Zune in the past month. If it’s you, please reply with a photo of the Vergecast on your Zune to @reckless and I (hope it’s brown). — PolitiTweet.org

(update, the no-ad thing might be a my chrome config thing, since it all depends on URL modifiers. Will track and it down and probably delete the hella bad tweet instead of editing it and lol broken threads will be a thing forever) — PolitiTweet.org

The Nuzzel / Top Stories interface is pretty good! Too bad it’s not actually available on “the web.” It’s only available on the desktop web, on mobile it tells you you have to open the app (and it’s not available on the iOS app yet). https://t.co/3iit4ueJzZ — PolitiTweet.org

@CaseyNewton eh. https://t.co/hoP8mIecYN — PolitiTweet.org

@TwitterBlue Also the ad-free Scroll functionality for partner websites (of which we are one) is HELLA BAD. It ONLY works if you click on a Twitter card. It doesn’t work if you click a link (eg when the card is replaced by an image). It doesn’t work from Tweetdeck at all. Bring Back Scroll. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

This is not tweets but editable. @TwitterBlue seems nice, but I'm not convinced it's $2.99/month nice. (When you tweet, the undo button is not 100% the first thing you see after you hit send, eg if you're on the replies screen. beware lol) https://t.co/aAfAEnHNRW https://t.co/CbKIU6ZUXK — PolitiTweet.org

We definitely had some Xfinity service drops in San Francisco last night, but this seems very bad on the other coast today. You know what would be cool if your internet service was unreliable? Viable competition so you could vote with your wallet. https://t.co/GI5mM1OaKk — PolitiTweet.org

Big thanks to @rwhitby (webOS Interals shout out!), @cgartenberg, and the incredible hacker who actually brought USB-C to the iPhone, Ken Pillonel for joining this week. And of course to @andrumarino and @liamhjames for producing. Come listen, fellow nerds and normals. — PolitiTweet.org

For the next few weeks, I’m doing deep dives on the most complicated or weird specs that are changing the future of gadgets — but are still kind of messy today. This week, USB-C. https://t.co/heWgAlOMNi — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s my short review of the Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch. It is WILD that Fossil reportedly learned about Wear OS 3 at the same time the rest of us did, essentially dooming its holiday lineup before it was announced. https://t.co/sWr63flfmS https://t.co/PGlMFq8cIN — PolitiTweet.org

So the new MacBook Pros will ship with the latest version of macOS which means that all those new ports Apple finally added back should be called … Monterey Jacks. — PolitiTweet.org

@_sreev I mean it’s an inside joke lol. I don’t have a lot of vanity URLs but had to grab that one. My favorite one is this, which redirects to @thedextriarchy’s excellent 230 explainer https://t.co/DMqj9EfO4h — PolitiTweet.org
