1. 99.00% people don't even think before tweeting. 2. 0.99% think but tweet only one tweet at a time. 3. 0.01% only think and create a long thread.

Hence is it really required? What REAL pain are your really trying to solve? For how many people will use this? Are people already searching/paying for this?

This is a cold hard and harsh truth. May save you lot of your valuable time in the near future.

Pls DON"T build something that NOBODY wants.

We'll see about that :) We're seeing nice traction, and early feedback is from people that were tired to get sucked into the Twitter timeline and algorithm, and finally have a nice focused environment to tweet their ideas and move on with their day.

"traction" = paying customers or people being nice to you on launch day? don't confuse the two. that said, all the best for your launch :)

They are targeting a niche who is likely more willing to pay for this than average internet user. I only ever see long twitter threads from VCs, developer advocates, CEOs, startup people who spend $$$ on productivity software to optimize their life, etc.

It's fine if it is $100 from 10 customers than $5 from 1000.

Did you pull these data from the air? I follow a lot of people who tweet long threads, a lot of the time

I follow a lot of people who sometimes tweet out intelligent, multi-post threads.

...why?
