What is your least favorite feature on X (Twitter) and Instagram?

by•

Can you share the features on social networks that bother you and that you wish didn't exist? (Twitter) I would like you to share your opinions about what's new in X, Instagram and other popular networks. I'm also curious about your opinions on @ProductHunt. I continue to design LivelyPencil's working system. Your ideas will inspire me. Remember, for growing up; It is possible with solidarity and connection.

On Twitter, the algorithmic timeline can sometimes clutter the feed with less relevant content, making it hard to stay updated with real-time posts. Instagram's frequent changes to their interface can be a bit overwhelming, detracting from the simplicity of just enjoying and sharing photos.

@felix_f_tao These platforms include the world's best business analysts and engineers. Things that cause discomfort to us normal users may have much different meanings for them. I'm sure each feature and service has its own reasons.

The thing I hate about X is that people misuse popular tags in their tweets to gain views. This makes it very hard and annoying to find relevant tweets.

@zignis This situation bothers me a lot too. That's why we've limited LivelyPencil's popular tag system. We only allow using one tag within a "Page" and "Retell". (At LivelyPencil, we call user posts "Pages". We call page excerpts Retell.) We continue to work on the content system to take serious precautions in this regard. There are some great ideas we're thinking about. We will complete them all this year.

@zignis Storiny feedback: This error is frequently shown when editing a profile. "Something went wrong—let's give it another try." In addition, people who log in with a Google account do not know their password, but a password is requested when editing their profile. It would be useful to fix this. Storiny is a nice project, I wish you success. Hey guys create an account https://storiny.com

@livelypencil thanks for the feedback, its still in beta. i've just received the issue in the monitoring tool and it turns out to be a client-side exception when logging-in with google. i'll try to land a fix in the next release. Also, you don't need a password to edit your profile, you only need a password when updating your username, adding 2fa or another login method. this ensures that you minimize the risk of losing your account.

Well to be honest I hate that it's called X and not Twitter lol!
Ayhan Ergezen
@carolmoh Yes, I still can't get used to the new name. Also, it's not cool at all, it feels like I'm linking to the adult site https://x.com/livelypencil/ :D

@livelypencil hahaha, this is one of my fave ways someone has linked to their site 😂 You know what I would love to see on that adult site, X? The ability to auto-generate subtitles when you upload a video. However, thankfully, people can actually do that at lightning speed and laser-sharp accuracy with our product that we just launched on PH today 😉 https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

@carolmoh LOVO looks like an amazing product. I come across surprisingly cool projects every day on @ProductHunt https://lovo.ai is one of them.

On Twitter, the algorithmic timeline can be a bit frustrating as it often buries real-time content, which is what Twitter is known for. As for Instagram, the overemphasis on Reels can overshadow the simple joy of sharing and viewing photos.

The thing is without tags your tweets did not get views, which make people overuse tags
Ayhan Ergezen
@sylvia_sheng You're right, this is very frustrating. Sometimes it is not possible to understand why a popular tag is popular. Because I encounter tweets full of spam, advertisements and irrelevant content. This situation is known by X management, but they do not take precautions because it is an advantageous situation for them.

Koh Grill & Sushi Bar in Singapore stands out as a culinary gem, offering a delightful fusion of Japanese cuisine with a touch of innovation. Located in the bustling heart of the city, this dining establishment has earned a reputation for its delectable grills and sushi creations that leave patrons coming back for more.

@zainali_offical Thanks for the ads bro. Any recommendations from the chef? You should have written that too!

I liked twitter when it was more happy go lucky 😂

Sure! My least favorite feature on Twitter is probably the character limit for tweets, which can sometimes feel restrictive. On Instagram, it might be the algorithm that determines what posts users see first in their feed, which can sometimes feel unpredictable.
