Also often true. In any case, national reporters cannot do what we need at local level: day-to-day accountability.https://twitter.com/knowtheory/status/867784873733308416 …

Wrote up thread on local news and Montana to FB (because, heh). (Why doesn't Twitter allow click-to-expand posts?

You mean longform posts (> 140 chars) that are just condensed in the home timeline?

You can see 140 characters, your timeline looks the same there is a "click to expand" button, you can see 500 more. Perfect.

This, plus the way Twitter ignored messaging for so long when DMs were so powerful, are things I'll never understand aren't done.

Nobody who doesn't want to click has to... Now, people get around this with screenshots. For years now. I'd have run with it. :-D

Screenshots of long text make me so sad…one advantage of real native long content would be that it would be searchable, too
