Yes, because there is a screenshot in one of the tweets.

Agreed. The microblogging format is more for one-way communication (i.e. 1 poster to many viewers). Trying to have a discussion or even just reading a discussion on twitter, mastodon, etc. is a terrible experience.

It’s designed for soap boxing

Yeah Blue Sky is a pain in the ass too. If you go to the comments of a post, there's no way to collapse a thread. So it's just:

Main post

  • Top comment
    • A
    • Million
    • Fucking
    • Worthless
    • Replies
    • You
    • Can't
    • Collapse

It's like the word balloons in a comic book. You just kinda work out the order via context.
