Sometime between joining Twitter and sending his first tweet, NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden forgot to check his notification settings. If he did, he might've noticed that by default Twitter sends email notifications for pretty much every social interaction.
Whoopsies.
There was a time when I’d swear by Tweetbot. Tapbots’ quirky iOS Twitter client won a ton of people over way back in 2011 with its blend of smart design and strong personality — for a time, I’d have called it the best way to use Twitter.
But as Twitter tightened the noose around third-party developers' necks and denied them access to new features, it’s been harder and harder to use anything but the official client. I keep both around, but use Twitter’s own app more often than not.
Well, now Tweetbot 4 is here. And after having used it for a couple of days, I’m going to switch back.
