Twitter's new unwelcome update has sparked an uproar among its users. Being able to add 50 people to a thread will now allow users to drag way too many others into an argument they don’t want to be a part of, writes Timothy B. Lee of Vox. He argues that adding usernames to a reply's character count, as was the previous method, limited spamming a large number of others at once with tweets not directed at them. Lee suggests that the outrage over the update demonstrates the platform's redundancy.
