That’s exactly what I did, so yes.

This is a cool topic and OP put some effort into a cool investigation. But half way through I gave up because twitter kept bugging me to open an app and adjust some setting. It also used 25% of the screen showing framing info.

Okay, problem solved then.

So you agree then that given the existence of free will, it's better that the author tweet this story than [not] blog it and thus allows folks like yourself to ignore it while others who don't mind can read and enjoy.

It’s better that we try to reduce false dichotomies and that the author improve the readability of content by using more appropriate tools.

>> author improve the readability of content

This is, again, a subjective opinion. You are free to improve the readability of his content on your own using all the tools that are available. Given Foone's audience, he's doing well enough and people enjoy consuming his content as he decides to publish it.

Your authoritarian stance here is really condescending and odd.

One could also choose to simply not read this story and go on to another story that's more suited for the reader.

ADHD is one disorder; the need to actively tell people you're not reading something and why is another. ADHD is less anti-social.

Twitter makes me jump through hoops to even look at the content (oh look, I've been rate-limited for loading their website once today, but they'll happily remote the rate-limit if I install their app!), so yes.

Yes. There is already enough content out there for hundreds of lifetimes.

I've gone through the hurdle of reading it, and as someone just curious and not specifically interested in the topic, in the end more it was more pain than pleasure.

Also there's a great tool made to settle this endless dispute : https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1135354815259656192.html

But seeing how chronically and rudely the guy cries about this issue, without even looking for the halfway compromise, he just looks like a jerk to me. And I'm not impressed enough by the content to get over it in the future.

Thanks for the reference to threadreaderapp.

Agreed. Twitter is terrible for long-form content, end of story. They could easily write chunks of a blog, in the same size as a tweet, one-by-one, then publish when it's all ready. I think it's just their 'thing' now and it must be nice to have loads of people jump to your defence because you said ADHD. It's like they have an army of people ready to be offended on their behalf.

Or even just update the blog post repeatedly like it was a tweet. At least at the end it wouldnt have horrible ux

Would the blog have 32 thousand readers though?

>> They could easily write chunks of a blog

Foone disagrees. You know better than him how his brain works?
