Twitter rolled back an update that made users switch between a Home feed and Latest tab, with controversy surrounding users being forced to see outdated tweets.
Twitter has rolled back the update that gave users the option to switch between the algorithmically-generated Home tab and the Latest tab that allows them to see tweets in chronological order. When Twitter rolled out the update on iOS on Thursday, with Android and web versions to set to get it “soon,” users complained that they would be forced into the Home tab by default every time they open the app, which made seeing tweets in chronological order extremely difficult. On Monday, Twitter switched the timeline back after significant pushback.
