They are a product of twitter having 144/288 characters limit.

Nostr clients naturally suck at rendering threads. And they shouldn't have to.

Long form notes is where long content should exist. But many kind1/twitter-like clients don't know how to handle long form. Maybe they shouldn't have to.

When people like write long form, they often want to advertise it on the kind1 public square. Hi I wrote this amazing thread about the earth being flat, with graphics and all. Fully proven!

Was thinking if something more clever could be done. Like long form notes have an optional added field for "kind1" description/summary in itself.

Then clients that don't know what to do with it would just gracefully degrade to render the kind1 content only with some indication of there is more to this note.

For a long note, it'd be nice if the author summarized it in a couple of lines. Then we just use this "show more" option like in Amethyst. Or not.
