      At the moment, I have no idea who this tweet is visible to. People who follow you and me? Both? Why am I replying to myself?pic.twitter.com/DHLGo52O1P

      "Replying to" is now small in UI, but Twitter is a place for conversation, not random words floating around. Conversation is between people.

      When people "thread" they are not replying to "themselves" the same way I am now replying to you. The new UI conflates all this.

      See below. I didn't realize you had tweeted AT me till someone else replied to us both. If you reply TO me that is crucial info.pic.twitter.com/N2f3rGlHvk

      Twitter would benefit from more characters. Taking links, mentions (not up to 50! Maybe 5. Maybe 10) off the limit is fine. +

      But right now I lost any sense of visibility; threads and replies are conflated. There is much to improve in threads (which are great).+

      Right now, deleting a tweet in the middle breaks the thread. Let me reattach. Quoting a tweet breaks thread. Which isn't good. etc.

      Conversation is as much about the metadata (the @ convention) as the content. UI needs to bring back clarity to parties to the conversation.

      More thread functionality, for sure, but I am lost on who sees what; feels clunky to add or delete people, threads & replies are confusing.

      I cannot see how this is any clearer to a new user? Also, 50 person twitter canoes invite abuse & confusion. 5 or 10 is reasonable.

          Also, I now find that I cannot remove all users from a reply... I can remove one person, but not necessarily the other?

          There is a great Twitter move--you reply and put the person's name at the end. Shocked your UX people don't know this. This killed it.
