Look at it from the other side: If Twitter didn't make changes, how<br>
could the programmers earn their princely salaries? How would the<br>
executives justify their existence? And their paychecks?<br>
<br>
And don't forget monetization. Many "improvements" are done to increase<br>
the income to the company, not to please the existing eyeballs.<br>
(Remember that adage? If you aren't paying for it, you are not the<br>
customer, you are the product.)<br>
<br>
I don't use Twitter at all, which means I can look at the situation from<br>
an unbiased viewpoint.<br>
<br>
You can throw brickbats now.<br>
