I worry that my reading ability has been reduced to 140char at a time. Flicking through things 'nup, can't be bothered.. oh, hello twitter!'

Trolls under the bridge on twitter... and on the bridge!
Pretty much merry folk on Nostr, or at least able to put together a coherent sentence and not be afraid of the 140char limit and use their words and feelings, more liberally.
Having said that, not enough of the smaller known npubs that […]

we got a clear look at it on january 6th from 4pm for like...9 hours? people like miller were, for lack of a better term, in hiding, trump was legit desperately trying to spin, and these people acted like they were some divine body.
either way, expanding twitter past 140char was the real mistake.

Sounds like you reduced the word count without losing any of the value or meaning. Definitely a superpower.
(I always think reducing word counts is a valuable skill; it's why the original 140char Twitter was so useful as it trained us to be concise.)

Maybe to encourage tweets that are #exactly140characters I should make a better hashtag. Using #140char would probably be easier for people.

Trying to discuss differing views in 140char kinda pointless. Makes far too hard courtesy, nuance, complexity demanded by tough topics.

@notthathard very fixable! And frustrating I know. *sends tea* can provide more detail via email if needed. 140char = limiting!

This belongs here, but I can't hack @support.bsky.team to insert a repost into a thread. Once there's a social medium that has short posts (140char was great), and allows editing, INCLUDING of links between posts to rebuild a thread, I am THERE; startup costs be damned.

THANKS Johnny, & Matt!
Method & madness, both. "Tariffs and industrial policy work, tariffs and crypto just raise prices and impoverish a country.
[T]ariffs [might] force…political changes to eventually lead to Americans accepting the need for a strong state again. Stranger things have happened."

Took content, split into 140char or less sections, posted them every x seconds, linking each to last. Potentially generated moment from them

I mean the 140char version is that they Are related but the Marshals were founded as a sort of version of a very specific, narrow English jurisdiction- their special powers have real medieval roots

Look mate, I research art history professionally. I get that you think you gotchaed me about artistic intent, but I promise you, you didn't. And you won't believe me, because I have no critical authority that can convince you in 140char, or likely, any wordcount. But there we are.
