This idea also goes against the "Copies cite the original." approach mentioned in the article. You'd lose view/readership tracking or fragment it.
- burkaman 4y agoUsing the Cory Doctorow example, he converts articles into long threads when necessary. Here's an example: https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic/110231149492915096 https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic/110231149492915096 It does start with a link to his own page, but you can just skip that and keep reading if you want to. I think this is a great approach - if you just want to read the article you can click through, but if you really prefer a long thread you can read that instead, and then easily repost or respond to a particular quote from the thread. It's true that you lose unified view/readership tracking, but I think that's considered a positive for a lot of people.
