Why is using Twitter for telling a story a thing. People that are smart as hell using a tool built around what feels like mental whiplash to tell a relatively complex story. I actually think there is value with Twitter applying pressure and economy of words (I would fall into the category of over-explainer) helping folks like myself be more concise, but can't the story just go here? Thinking out loud I'm sure there is an approach towards multiple networks being hit simultaneously but it'd really be nice if linking to a Twitter thread roll-up just automatically dumped the whole text here without needing to click into and pull in ${threadReaderTooling}
