【Watch Honest Thief Online】

Since 2016,Watch Honest Thief Online Twitter decided it was better to show you the best tweets first, based on an algorithm.

Not everyone was a fan of the algorithmic timeline, though, and in a surprise decision, Twitter announced that it will allow users to easily switch to a view that shows the classic chronological timeline.

Twitter has updated its app so you have this capability now, but it's a bit of a chore. If you go into Settings and switch off "show the best tweets first," tweets will show up in reverse chronological order.

In coming weeks, Twitter will introduce "an easily accessible way" to allow users to switch between algorithmic and chronological timelines.

Launched in 2016, the best-tweets-first timeline was the dreaded step toward what rival Facebook had been doing with its news feed for years.

But the change also had the effect of sometimes upping old tweets that had high engagement, which in the fast-moving world of Twitter meant the content would often be stale by the time many users saw it.

The bigger breakthrough with this announcement: Twitter actually appears to be listening. So how about that edit button...?
