Opinion: I think the most stupid feature of Twitter™ is the whole link tracking shit 😅 The fact that any link you post is translated into https://t.co/... and its so much work to get the actual link (I block all sorts of add serving domains, including Twitter™). Go!
@prologic@twtxt.net I agree. Lua!
@mckinley@twtxt.net Lua?! 🤔
@prologic@twtxt.net I thought we were punctuating our posts with the names of programming languages, since you said “Go!”
PHP!
@mckinley@twtxt.net Lol no! 😆 I was tying to spark a discussion 😅
@logout@i-logout.cz True! The short links are probably the only useful thing really – except they track what you click 🤦♂️
@prologic@twtxt.net Well… I’m in the middle here. It’s useful to have automagically some stats of your links (more for the vanity metrics) used a lot by brands and commercial usage.
For people wasting time on their favorite social media… I don’t know how useful is that. Aaaand, in free social media, where you are the product, well… It’s for granted that you’ll be tracked in exchange.
@eaplmx@twtxt.net This is true 😆
