I love these twitter come back memes. I never have any idea who these people are, but i enjoy that they get shown themselves.

It's also a good reminder of why I've never been on twitter.

I love them but they're so fucking hard to read. Totally out of normal reading order.

Very true i struggle to figure out which way to read them every time.

Especially this one. I have no idea why the top and the bottom messages seem to be after the middle message. Or are they before? Was the middle one first, the bottom one second, and the top one last? No clue. Lol

The bottom one was the original. The reply is the top - it's quote-tweeting the original. The reply also has a screenshot of an older tweet attached (middle).

The community note thing is on the original, that's separate.

Agree it's confusing, even though I know why it's like that

As an IRC to forums to other forums to Digg to Reddit to Lemmy user who has never used Twitter…

That’s the worst design ever I hate it

Yeh.. now that I think about it, It's got a very "my point is far more important than the one I'm replying to" vibe, which is almost never true in reality. Narcissist-focused design.
