The social media giant has announced that it would no longer automatically refresh timelines on the web.
Twitter has finally chucked an annoying feature out of its system. The social media giant has announced that it would no longer automatically refresh timelines on the web. If you are a Twitter user, you would know how annoying it gets when you are reading a tweet and Twitter’s auto-refreshing feature refreshes the entire feed with new tweets. In most cases, you had to scroll down all the way down to read the tweet you were reading when you opened the site. However, things are changing now and Twitter doesn’t want its users to deal with the annoying auto-refreshing feature.
Announcing the new update, Twitter posted from its support page, “An update to the disappearing Tweet experience is rolling out for web! Now you can choose when you want new Tweets to load into your timeline click the Tweet counter bar at the top.”
