Twitter: „iOS 8 kostete uns Nutzer“

Users who were counted as active because of this automatic pinging on iOS 7 were then lost when they updated to iOS 8.

So three million of these lost users were accessing Twitter from a mobile browser and really weren’t accessing Twitter at all (at least not consciously). They were counted as “active” because Safari did the work for them.

Diese Erklärung ist mächtig mutig und wirft (für mich) die Frage auf, welche der 288 Millionen Twitter-Konten ähnlich „aktiv“ sind.
