Yeah, I prefer threadreaderapp over Twitter's native UI for reading long threads all day everyday, but don't find the native one difficult to read.

My only complaint is when the thread is long, Twitter will start not showing it all at once. You have to click the last tweet to see anything after it.

But again, threadreaderapp itself also has trouble to feed all the parts of a super long thread.

Thank you for this! I have seen this before but I forgot the name. Bookmarking it and I'll probably create a simple bookmarklet so that I can quickly open it up on the current tweet

edit: in case anyone is interested, here's the code for the bookmarklet to turn the current tweet into a threadapp thread. This is not very deeply tested but it worked with the current tweet above so YMMV:

  javascript:(function(){window.location.href = 'https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/' + window.location.pathname.split('/').pop(); })();
