It's the top trend in the world today.

Twitter is planning to introduce an algorithmic timeline to replace its current timeline and it may be in place as soon as next week. BuzzFeed News has reported that your timeline will be based on what Twitter’s algorithm thinks people most want to see rather than the current reverse chronological order that tweets appear. Twitter declined to comment on the story and it's still not clear whether users will be forced to use the new timeline or it will be an option. People are freaking out about the potential change, #RIPTwitter is the top trending in the world. https://twitter.com/krishdelgado/status/695940912912797697 https://twitter.com/LondonDrids/status/695940748571602944 https://twitter.com/PikeAdam/status/695940739243581440 https://twitter.com/SaithAbdullah99/status/695940730674671617 https://twitter.com/radiometricx/status/695940668737376256 https://twitter.com/RalphJRanido/status/695940548855607301 https://twitter.com/jfcben/status/695940277425586176 https://twitter.com/__arsenalnews_/status/695940263940907008 https://twitter.com/DeepModemMom/status/695940467909906432 https://twitter.com/loyallarents/status/695940136941416448 https://twitter.com/SAINTDORKS/status/695940137918726145 https://twitter.com/DJ_Strika/status/695939942065836032 https://twitter.com/GjannSpencer/status/695939772318023680 https://twitter.com/annemccoy/status/695939473859874816 It's not broken.
