If only this Twitter user had a blog to write on.... (/S he is a famous author and tech blogger and should know better).
Or if only each tweet had, instead of just a page number, also an indication of total number of pages. Like 10/15 ("oh, only five more tweets") instead of a useless count 5 ("oh I'm on tweet number five, that's of no use to me as I've read the previous four")
In the end I gave up after a few tweets . I would have liked to be able to say I gave up half way but there was no way for me to know that.
Edits: there are 23 tweets.
- criddell 6y agoI get what you are saying, but there's something to be said for going where your audience is. I'm just glad this wasn't on Tik Tok. Edit: Am I hallucinating? I could have sworn the first time I opened this, it went to https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1296248163653660672.html https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1296248163653660672.html

- tasubotadas 6y agoYeah... this is beyond me why people want to write blog posts on twitter using atrocious structure. Is it because people can start providing feedback while he is writing and he comes up with content on the spot? Or is it because some reading that on twitter is more engaging? Anyway, I just quit immediatelly.
