I don&#x27;t get the complaints here. Most of the complaints about the algorithmic timeline are implementation details, not objections to the concept itself.<p>An algorithmic timeline <i>does not necessarily mean</i> live events are out of order. There is no reason the algorithm cannot be sophisticated enough to detect time-sensitive tweets and preserve the ordering of real time events. In fact, a sophisticated enough algorithm would cluster real time event-related tweets in chronological batches, and surface relevant replies &#x2F; commentary around it.<p>I&#x27;m pretty sure that almost all the people threatening to leave Twitter will still be there when the dust settles.
