Or how about changes to the desktop site, where now clicking an image in a tweet actually makes it smaller most of the time. Gotta be one of the worst designs I've ever seen.

Twitter images are totally broken, especially when people want to use them to convey text. There really needs to be a "view original size" that doesn't involve me using the DOM inspector.

My bet would be that your experience does not match with most users. They do base these decisions on analytics after all.

Much of that functionality has been moved to "search". While I wasn't a big user of Discover and Activity, it seems global trends show on the default search screen.

Totally agree, I have stopped using it as much since they removed those.
