Twitter will return to chronological order very soon
The pleas have been heard, and that is that Twitter is going to back down on the issue of having a timeline computerized by an algorithm instead of using time as a logical order. This algorithm has been ordering what we see when we enter the blue bird's social network since 2016. Of course, always thinking about teaching us what matters most to us, supposedly. However, users miss the previous system, where everything was ordered according to when it was published.More logical and more comfortable to understand the most current, although sometimes the most important thing was lost. Now the paradigm is about to change again
4/ So, we're working on providing you with an easily accessible way to switch between a timeline of Tweets that are most relevant for you and a timeline of the latest Tweets. You'll see us test this in the coming weeks.

It has been confirmed by the official Twitter account on this same social network. Throughout a thread where he comments on his recent tests and decisions, he talks about how a large number of users asked for a return to chronological order Twitter is aware of this of this petition, and claims to be working on a balance between the most important and the most recent. That is why, even if there is no date or detailed explanation, it seems that it will give the user options so that they can choose the order in which they read the tweets or messages on this social network.
In this fourth point of their thread they state “they are working to provide the user with an accessible way to switch between a timeline of tweets that are important and a timeline with latest messages”. So everything suggests that, finally, Twitter will allow each user to choose how to view and order the tweets on this social network. Of course, we will have to see if it is a small section like the one that is already shown with the messages from the most important accounts for the user, or if we can really completely change the order of appearance of each and every one of the messages .
Anyway, Twitter has confirmed that for the arrival of this function we will have to wait a few more weeks It will be then when we can see Initially, the tests that will give rise to the final form of this function.So we will have to be patient to see how Twitter solves the possible problems of a new change of order, and then make this function available to all users.
