Why did twitter never make advanced search prominent? It was always kind of hidden but felt like the super feature few people used
Because most people don’t use it. People just want a simple box that ranks according to a bunch of learned context.
I see. I guess it was then tested at some point and data indicated nobody actually cared? I was always going to google to search "twitter advanced search" just to find that page. It's really powerful!
It’s a really good tool if you’re into doing OSINT. Using location to find people tweeting nearby is fun too.
Very true and why most are so controllable.
