Do people ever go on Twitter to view tweets that are more than 2 days old? The only time I see posts that old is when someone is mocking another person with a “is that you?” post showing some sort of hypocrisy.

I don’t think anyone would really notice if posts older than 2 weeks auto deleted.



That's the sole way I use the service. I don't have time to be constantly checking it. I may get linked to something there from some other website though and read into things.

I don't find Twitter to be a good service for real-time communication so it's much better this way.


Yes. I frequently access tweets from years ago using Twitter search or following links from more recent tweets.

I do, fairly frequently.
