caue.rego asked a question in Twitter on November 25, 2009 23:12:
missing tweets at home timelineI know that before we could see every tweet from who we are following in our twitter home. But now we can only see replies if we are following both the person who is writing and the person being replied. And now that happens even on lists! Why the hell they limited this?! And why can't we just have an opt-in and out of this non-sense in our configuration?
I would definitely opt-in "always show every single tweet from who I am following"!
Because now I just discovered that the new Retweet feature also prevents RT from showing! I believe that if I follow the same person being retweeted it just won't show in my timeline!! Why, oh why is twitter team doing that?!

I think you mean you would prefer to see the picture from the person you follow, basically. I agree it's confusing, although I prefer the term awkward. But I love finally being able to see the original tweet and more easily getting to know how it started. It is not like the original tweet can be modified with this feature, anyway.
I don't really care how this looks like now (although I do prefer it like this), but what I can agree here is that the layout could be different and I would also not mind it.
It could show, the regular "about X minutes ago by whoevah from whatevahclient" and below it a line like "Retweeted from originalposter also by 99 others" and provide a link to the original.
But truth to be told, I think the current way makes more sense. You just have to take the time to think about it in every detail and stop being so resistant to changes.
Now, regardless of this, I'm starting to hate the Twitter Team for their methods. Do you know what's even weirder? Try logging out and seeing any RT at someone's. It will show just like old regular text RT, without showing the original tweet, who retweeted, how many people, etc!!

Haha, that's a funny looking weird stuff you got there! Yeah, definitely a huge bug. Sorry for doubting you. I thought you were having issues with a twitter client or something.
If you really don't use anything other than the website, and you don't have anything on your Settings / Connections, then you'll have to either get in touch with the Twitter Team or keep hoping for good luck. I have no idea if they can find this issue on their own. Probably not if it's just you.
But why do you care deleting them anyway? I would just leave it.

What do you mean "open twitter"?
I think if you just go to www.twitter.com what you just described can not happen ever. There is no automatic list creation option at all!

automatic listsMost people who use twitter do it so to read about recent activities. If you follow any large enough number of people, and you are doomed to do it soon if you engage the service, you won't be able to read every and each tweet. The system is even done to encourage this behavior - when you get to your home, you'll see only a few messages from who you are following.
I'll speak for myself here, hoping more people share this feeling... I ended up using twitter for more than just sharing my moment. And I like to keep track of things, eventually, by posting it, tweeting it. Couple people I follow also seem to do it similarly. But most of them just write too much crap.
For now I'm using lists to manually select who I consider to not use twitter too much. I still couldn't find a good name for that list. Anyway, that is enough for me, and for now. So I wonder if I ever get to following 1k or more, like some people do. I believe they just ignore almost everything, and read the page eventually, just like my friend do.
But I wouldn't want to do just that, I like to read back relevant stuff. Maybe, one way for twitter to filter that stuff would be to adding something similar to lists "automagically" for me. It would offer me filters ranking people with amount of tweets, maybe. I don't know, maybe I need to elaborate more on this and I'm just looking for a brainstorm now. :P
Maybe I'll just keep up with my system and be glad the list feature was done. :P
Sorry if I made you lose time reading this. Later! :D

I still haven't tried this myself, but this seems like the beginning of a good solution: http://neosmart.net/blog/2009/watch-y...

I had never had such issue with any Flash version before 10, even with adobe's. Now I have exactly that lousy sympton on every and each computer I've testified, be it Safari or Firefox on Mac OSX 10.5 or 10.6, Windows XP or Vista running it on Chrome, Firefox or IE, or Ubuntu 9.04 with its Firefox or Shiretoko. Granted, I haven't (yet) tried Opera or Konqueror, but I doubt it will do any better. This is really weird and highly frustrating.
There are plugin alternatives, I've tried gnash and swfdec before on my ubuntu FF, but oddly I can't find them now! My only option to skip this issue is running a Super Ubuntu Live CD, which comes with outdated flash. I still should try a regular Live CD, but those come with no flash and I'd have to hope for swfdec.
Thing is the alternatives fail at loading some pages... As someone mentioned before, bring on HTML5!-
