Tweets need to go away period. what a piece of shit content model and platform. Having a very short character limit was never the genius move people thought it was
Originally it was a technical necessity since Twitter had to work via SMS which has a limit of 160 characters. The enforced brevity was part of it’s original charm IMHO.
I know where the limit came from but no one forced them to use SMS or make an app, period.
I never understood how forcing people into so few characters was a good thing. All it did was make people post less thoughtfully and more often.
This whole thread is people pissed off that NDT posts things without thinking about how they come off so it kind of makes sense he would do that on Twitter.
I sorta get it. Limits allow for creativity. I find myself being the most creative when I work within limits, selfimposed or otherwise. That’s why I love dnd and pathfinder.
I need that meme where he talks about kissing himself in the mirror
