What's wrong with linking to your blog? Twitter was once explained to me as short form blogging which I thought at the time was absurd but I kind of get it now.
The problem is when you try to be all things to all people you fail. I'd so much like someone like Elon Musk to take over Twitter. In the case of Musk I trust his judgement over the team running Twitter now. Can you imagine a group of two dozen people working a year trying to reinvent blogging? Knowing Twitter, sadly I can.

- masukomi 4y agoi don't see that it's functionally any different than what was displayed in that gif. In both cases there's a card to the longer content that needs to be clicked on. If your argument is that no-one will click on the card then twitter notes will fare no better because it's literally the same presentation.
- fknorangesite 4y agoYou're right: it isn't functionally different. But the quantified user behaviour absolutely is.

- fknorangesite 4y agoI believe it. Perhaps you are not representative of the general population.
