Twitter’s incessant “Install App” modal dialogue prompt on top of all the content is a form of chronic punishment and user abuse. They also conveniently fail to highlight the added benefit that you’ll be forced to create an account once you install the App.
The company should know by now, based on the dozens of previous rejections: I’m not interested! Too much trouble to set a goddamn cookie? Asshole product managers and their precious “metrics” are running (ruining) the show o’er there.
I acknowledge fully: This is only my opinion, maybe you’d be so kind as to enlighten me to a more informed point of view if you disagree?
I’d love to be less angry about this thing, but the unwelcome intrusions are growing ever more prevalent across the web. Soon enough I’ll prefer to opt-out from humanity entirely if this is really what what the future looks like. It’s truly dumb.
