Yesterday, October 19, I upgraded to the latest version of TweetDeck, v0.31.2. I’ve noticed a strange issue since then.
I retweet fairly often, usually with a comment added. I separate my comment from the tweet like this:
RT @joelcomm: Business IS personal. If not, it has no soul. <- Could not agree more.
Since the upgrade to TweetDeck, the <- and my comment won’t appear within TweetDeck itself. If I separate my comment with the pipe symbol – “|” – instead, it’ll show up fine.
This issue seems isolated to TweetDeck. Mixero shows my comment, as do SocialScope and UberTwitter on my Blackberry.
Weird.
EDIT: TweetDeck has released v0.31.3 which resolves this issue.
