Haha you are correct! I hate everything about it, including the reading order.

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.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

In comics there's variation on common forms but most have set sequences that just may vary between countries because of the directions of reading. Lots of manga even have the authors preferred style described at the start of the book now.
