For those that can't stand Twitter's UI: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1345146328058269696.html

Thank you. All I saw was a post with zero context, followed by a reply, followed by another reply using a different reply delineator (a horizontal break instead of a vertical line??), followed by nothing. It just ends. It's hard to believe this is real and intended.

It's amazing to me that people find twitter difficult to read... I mean it's not perfect but it's not an ovaltine decoder ring, either.

Just ... Scroll ... Down ... Click where it says "read more" or "show more replies"

You're human; THE most adaptable creature known. Adapt!

I'm not saying that twitter UX is perfect, or even good. I AM saying that it is usable.

Twitter was designed to have 280 characters max per message. This means that for this kind of long format text, the amount of Signal-to-Noise ratio of having a large number of "tweets" is pretty low.

The amount of stuff your brain has to filter in the form of user name, user tweet handle, additional tagged handlers, UI menus, UI buttons for replying, retweeting, liking, etc on every single code snippet makes your brain work way more than it should to read a page of text.

Just imagine if I had written this exact text in 3 separate HackerNews comments, and prepended each with a 1/ 2/ 3/ text, in addition to all the message UI, it would have been more difficult to read than a simple piece of text.

You all are perfect delicate flowers that need things to be just right in order to use them, then? Is that what you're saying?

Because that's what I'm getting from you.
