    I couldn’t follow your post with all those line breaks at first. If you had preceded your post with “I’m glad i’m not the only one who thought this: a 🧵” I would have understood that each paragraph was related much more easily.

      I apologize if it was hard to read, if it makes you feel better I don’t fully understand emoji lingo, so I’m not quite understanding your post fully either. Are you suggesting that I make it all one big text splurge? I know that might look better on pc but it makes reading on mobile atrocious lol

        Oh I was just being sarcastic and trying to make a joke. I’ve seen a ton of people start off with that bullshit on microblogging sites, like “How Threat Actor APT Whatever Implanted Malware In Popular Package Source Code. \n A 🧵”, using the thread emoji instead of just saying thread. Then they go off on like 22 tweets that should have just been a blog post, but Medium is dumb and their employer isn’t fancy enough to have a public blog to post after-action findings on.

        Your post was absolutely fine and completely readable on mobile and PC alike, I’m truly sorry I caused any confusion or worry about formatting on your part!

          You are fine! I just wasn’t sure. Also I never considered that it might be an employer restriction for some of those. I guess that would make sense of why some people might post info dumps in that matter, even if it is hard to read.

          Additionally, that emoji makes a lot more sense now, I figured it was something like that. I just hadn’t seen it used that way before.
