@venterandy @jonfavs @threadreaderapp 🤣🤣 Great gif!! I might steal that if you don't mind?! I don't think there's a 'right' way, but some of the folks who do really long threads like @SethAbramson (sometimes over 100 tweets in one thread!) simply write up their whole thread (probably in a plain text app like... /1
@venterandy @jonfavs @threadreaderapp @SethAbramson ...Notepad, but not Word otherwise auto-formatting happens) and then, when done, simply paste the whole thread into twitter which then shows how much text can be included in the first tweet.
