TweetDeck by Twitter

I'm a long time twitter user and I am not sure why there's such bad reviews for tweetdeck. I read the reviews before downloading and i was quite skeptical, but after using it its actually my preferred way to use twitter. I also really like that its owned by twitter itself.

Please update for Big Sur! Love tihs app!

I can set the columns to their widest and it's not wide enough, why on earth can't we manually set the width of the columns?

remmber 2009, when twitter apps for desk top were a dime a dozen, individual coders were allowed to make adobe air apps, or other apps that took up little space and worked amazing on your desk top, almost some times felt like it was just a part of your desktop background? Remember when there were just twitter apps you could use on your desktop that didnt take up the entire screen? Remember when twitter didn’t own this app, and it was actually kind of good? come on twitter. stop making terrible decisions. stop limiting what outside developers can do, please allow users to perm set tweets in chronological order, stop making it so hard to get an account that can access an api (seriously had to use the twitter api for a class data science project and I thought i was being interigated by the FBI for why i wanted one). every decision twitter has made has not been a good one. I would kill just to have the old twitter desktop app back that twitter made for a while.

TweetDeck was a great app before it was acquired by Twitter itself. Twitter then proceeded to lobotomize it, and it did not recover for a couple of years. Since acquired by Twitter, the roles have reversed: features are rolled out in the web app first, and TweetDeck is relegated to being a second-class citizen, frequently suffering from bugs that are seldom quickly fixed. It still has its pluses, but for example right now the MacOS TweetDeck app won't play videos for me, but the web app does.

Despite my login and password working just fine in other apps and on Twitter Web, my login does not work in this app. Bad Twitter!

The appp is impressive and very useful. It is very nice to see home, notifications and activity side-by-side. It is also cluttered and overwhelming. Making the columns resposive to the container would be a relatively easy fix with major impact. The additional padding between the content and the columns would make it easier and more pleasant to use.

Good idea; so much to improve.

In some restricted areas, agents are essential! Be sure to add proxy support! Thanks again!

Installed Catalina. Installed Tweetdeck. Even with realtime mode turned off, it updates too fast and shows too little context. But after a reply or two, starting a reply just hangs—the textbox appears but you can't select it, cancel, do anything else but exit and restart. Good luck even finding what you were going to reply to!
