This had the effect that users would just reply to their own tweets because they couldn't post long form content (or worse screenshots of text). It's not easy to read or good technical implementation. And as is tradition, people will post without thinking.

Another benefit of shorter posts is that it's easier to reply to specific paragraphs. The composition of multiple notes could be more streamlined than twitter.
But yeah it's not that big of a deal, clients define the nostr experience so you could do it anyway you want.
I could see a "blog post" client that splits a large post into multiple notes, so that individual parts could be liked boosted, but the root note could be shared as well.
Or they could just use a new note kind altogether and my "twitter" client wouldn't see any of it. Lots of options.
Yes, exactly
There are other ways to handle this, but yea client implementation.
