Adding a Twitter account gives you two things:

  • Twitter notifications (“John Smith liked your tweet”)
  • A mini-feed of the 5-10 most recent tweets

What you’re seeing in the screenshot is the mini-feed, which you can’t remove because it isn’t a notification. You wouldn’t go to twitter.com and expect all tweets to disappear once you’d read them, either (although perhaps that wouldn’t be such a bad thing). Back in the day, Facebook posts also showed up in this mini-feed, but Facebook blocked third parties from accessing posts a long time ago. Perhaps one day we’ll be able to add Fediverse accounts and have their posts show up in the mini-feed…

You could turn this into a feature request. In the settings for a Twitter account, there’s a switch for ‘tweets and notifications’, and turning it off removes the ‘mini-feed’, but it also stops Twitter notifications from coming in. It could be useful to enable one but disable the other, and it sounds like it would probably not be extremely difficult to uncouple the two.

Whats does PUBLIC RELEASE mean?

Meanwhile I wonder if it will still work despite all the mess that Musk does.

Actually I thought it was much better on the N9, where you could have RSS feeds of your choice on the events page.

Anyway nthn’s post, that’s maybe the solution. Let the user the possibility to receive notifications and seeing the feed of tweets in events view.

Thank you for your contribution. Don’t hesitate to ask the next time if you’re unsure.

For your next bug report, I invite you to install and use a great app called Bugger!. As part of the Community Bug Coordinator it helps me a lot.

So, since it’s not a bug, how can I change it to a feature-request?
thank you
