People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

Mark NSFW content.
No doxxing people.
Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
No bullying or international politcs
Be excellent to each other.
Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

I don't think I will ever figure out the order to read these things.

Just... Why? Wouldn't you want it to be formatted in a way that's immediately obvious what order to read them?

I used bluesky lately (which i guess uses the same format?) and it looks like so because we are viewing a reply(3) to a post (2) that cite another post (1)

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks. I hate it.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

So convenient.

Same

Genuine question: what's confusing about this post?

There are some that are confusingly structured, but this one should be quite obvious

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Obvious would be top to bottom. You know, like how every human reads.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

For replies, yes. And that is the case. But the first one is a quote, not a reply

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

And it makes sense to put the reply before the thing they're replying to.

You have to read the posts and then put them in order yourself. I see these a lot and I'm still only ever like 90% sure I'm ordering them right.

The other commenter is right, its a stupid way to list a chain of events considering its out of order and doesn't even start with "1".
