[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 8728640, member: 18"] You can fix that - I absolutely hate it and find Twitter unusable without the "thinks I might be interested in" stuff on. So I have it set to only show people I follow, and show in strict timeline order, rather than a post from 7 hours ago being further down than one from a day ago like normal Twitter does. Unfortunately I can't remember what buttons I have to press to do that lol. And it still has "might be interested" stuff on mobile, even though it's off on PC. Oh boy yup. I dunno what exactly the problem at DNDBeyond is, but they went from rapidly upgrading and improving their platform, make fairly big changes at a decent rate from launch until late 2019, to gradually getting slower, and slower, and slower, and less capable, and slower from late 2019 until now. Whether it's just bad management, brain drain, underinvestment, sheer incompetence (I feel like, sadly there is some of that), bad prioritization, or some/all of those, I dunno (my guess would be all), but it's bad, it's real bad. There's stuff they literally expected to be done by early 2020 (so pre-pandemic even) that still isn't done, and that they're still cracking down on as if they were not owned by WotC, even though they're owned by WotC (their entire detailed excuse before was that their contract with WotC didn't allow this). So I expect fixing DNDBeyond, if WotC even make a serious attempt and it doesn't suffer the "WotC curse" which has destroyed virtually every D&D-related IT project/game WotC has been close to (BG3 and Beyond being the only real exceptions, and no surprise those were the ones most distant from WotC until now), it'll be a long time before Beyond is improved to the standard I think they'd want to be encouraging mass sign-ups.
