  • I’m sure many would like to help, but “Queue doesn’t work” is very vague. Vague tasks tend to make us lazy, so to increase engagement, it could be helpful if you’re a bit more specific.

    For starters, you could describe what exactly you’re experiencing: Is the next video in the queue not starting? Does it not add the video in the queue in the first place? Does it play the video without sound? Did it work before? What fixes have you tried already? Have you tried downgrading? Have you tried it on other devices?

    Hope this helps! :)




  • Didn’t know about that obsession of mine, thanks doc :P

    Seriously though, let me rephrase: What I meant with my comment is that I have as much trust in a Twitter user as I have in Twitter and Elon Musk, which is zero.

    So, when talking about Twitter, I trust what I can look up everywhere: I can look up that Twitter fired more than half of its workforce, and in addition I now know that Elon Musk likes to obsess about Twitter’s code when he knows nothing about it and that he made changes to its code over and over again.

    As you can see, I am not giving Elon or Twitter the benefit of the doubt, I’m doing the exact opposite: If it’s posted on Twitter, it’s most likely false until proven otherwise. Wouldn’t make sense to distrust the same person when they tell me something that I know is false, and trust them when they tell me something that I like, would it?😂

    If you’re talking about “arguments”, there’s enough shit that happens around Twitter, using the dubious screenshots of a Twitter user as arguments just weakens everything else. This is just a “sad if true” and a great conversation starter for us. I wanted to take a jab at the possible truthfulness of those screenshots, learned about the fact that Elon did in fact, in its infinite wisdom, change considerable part of Twitter’s backend and could have fucked up the algorithm, and thus am quite convinced that not even new Twitter users are safe now. At this point I even pity the Twitter bots.

    Anyways, carry on :)



  • While I do believe that Twitter is slowly becoming a right-wing paradise due to its owner’s say… “tendencies”…AND has an interest to push its users towards that direction, I doubt the veracity of these pictures since it would mean that Twitter’s algorithm would have gone completely bananas.

    While “trust me bro” sources often confirm what we all think, they often don’t tell the whole story and have the sole purpose of going viral, especially on Twitter.

    Anyways, what’s Twitter? Is that a knock-off Mastodon?
