I actually don't even know how to see replies on someone else's thread. The UI is quite confusing TBH.
> A social network needs to be social, feel social, and make you feel like you have friends who want to listen to your drivel on it.
Completely agree. I see people I follow reply to each other, but when I comment on theirs, they don't. They aren't even celebrity, just engineers from various tech companies. I feel like all I can do is either retweet or like. I feel cold. I go on FB, comment, I usually get more replies from strangers I don't know but care enough to comment.
This is sad.

- wingerlang 10y agoI get what you're saying but for me it hasn't been an issue. I see conversations on twitter highly disposable. I usually read the top level replies only and in some rare occasion I dig deeper. Not saying it is good but it kinda works for my purpose on the site anyway.
