It seems to reset itself back to the new Twitter at times and for reasons I haven't figured out, but I made it through Mueller Day in the old format. Yes! I miss my cover picture, too.

I really want to complain to Twitter. How can that be done?

but I found this technique by searching for #oldtwitter, where I think people are voicing their opinions. Or maybe it was #newtwitter? In any case, there are many people feeling this pain. Yes, it's a #firstworldproblem, but it really seems dramatic and abrupt.

And it does happen. I haven't figured out what triggers that--clicking links within posts seems to be the precipitator, but not always.

The one thing I like about the new format is that you can bookmark tweets.

I searched for #newtwitter and #oldtwitter on Twitter, and found several people had posted this.

I keep telling myself, "Adapt or die." This one is really tough in that first-world-problem way.
