Next they should address the nightmare of navigating conversations had via quote tweets. It's like going down the rabbit hole, trying to find the beginning of an exchange. Never know how deep it is. Then once you've found the beginning, it's a long trek of hitting the back button in the browser or app to follow the conversation in context. Quote tweets were a good addition, but the current implementation does not work with the way people use them.
- paulgb 9y agoA free-time project of mine has been building a browser extension[1] for navigating conversations. Quote-tweets are hard because they turn the conversation into a DAG instead of a tree. Would love to know if you have any thoughts on solving this.

- joelrunyon 9y agoI was actually thinking that there should be something that "mind-maps" different branches of a tweet thread. The normal UI gets confusing fast. The problem in general is a bit tough - since it's a little "choose-your-own-adventurey", but this is an interesting concept. Nice.
