    I give up. I don’t get fleets, stories, or any ephemeral media.

        They're a lot closer to text messages than they are to tweets

        This. Don't think of it as published 'media'. It's like talking. Talking is ephemeral.

        I only know of one person who has used alternative features on Twitter to good effect: https://twitter.com/i/events/1075120005195288576?s=2 … @ReformedTrader has a whole series of “moments” that you can go through highlighting points about investing and related topics.

        https://twitter.com/i/events/1075118617434349568?s=21 … Kind of cool when used correctly, but just not easily accessible if you don’t know about them.

        I get why marketers want it. Create artificial urgency. I’ll never understand why the market “wants” (re: uses) it. I like my memories remembered, thanks.pic.twitter.com/dMrQTezwrs
