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

It's very painful to follow a conversation on Twitter. I'm not sure why they think the way they've done things makes sense.

It was never supposed to support conversation in the first place.

People were supposed to shoot short, simple, single messages and other people maybe react to this with their own short, single messages.

Yeah, I've never seen any value in Twitter. They should've called it "Public IM" or limited IIRC and make it function well like IM. Even the poor implementation of threads in Slack is way better than the perverted version of Twitter.

Except for the information that doesn't show up on other platforms, which is why it is a frequently linked site here?

That value is in the content, not twitter itself
