    The result is scrolling and scrolling to read something that (I feel) could’ve been put into a few paragraphs in a single blog post.

    I was pretty much born into the microblog style (or at least not on the Internet during the popularity of regular blog style), and even then I agree that this sucked to read as a microblog rather than a single, more coherent post. I see someone drop a 🧵 and I immediately sigh internally. I don’t mind a thread post if it’s literally just someone reporting facts, but trying to tell a story (and like, in a exciting or suspenseful way) in threads that are like 2 sentences long sucks. Sometimes I wish people would just post on a blog/article/long post site and then just post ap link to the full text on their microblog.
