I'm still a fan of Twitter for Mac. It's one app I think users are safe from monetization, it never felt that important to them.


If there's one thing I'd single out about Twitter for Mac, it's the non-standard window implantation. The titlebar at the top is invisible and tiny, the plus button is more useless then a normal OS X app, you can't drag the window off-screen, and if your configured displays are changed and you suddenly have less vertical resolution there's no way to resize the window.[1]

I could keep bitching about things (no font size adjustment, bizarre animations that give no context, poor highlighting of selected tweet), but there's no real point - if you like it, you like it, if you don't, you don't. :-)

[1] This was all in version 1.0 - perhaps they've changed/fixed some of this, but I haven't felt like going back and finding out.


Yeah, at least until Twitter decides to extend the Dickbar to the Mac app as well.


That's what I'm saying, I don't think they'll do that. I will probably be proven wrong though.


In light of the Mac App store they probably will :/
