Please pardon my ignorance, but who is actually being limited by a maximum 600 tweets per day? It can’t be your average (or even moderately active) Twitter user, right?

I think the key is to remember you are trying to discuss opinions/convictions not facts.

When B says something like “C is a nazi”, A correctly asks why B believes C is a nazi, not why C is a literal nazi. So when you go down one level, A’s next question should be something like “why do you think these are nazi tactics?” and “why are nazi tactics bad?” It really requires both sides to be intellectually honest and curious about someone’s actual beliefs, otherwise the technique doesn’t work. I also think limiting yourself to just “why” isn’t always helpful. Sometimes you need to ask for clarification or the entire conversation becomes a farce.

Remember the goal is to learn something about the other persons views, not to set each other up with rhetorical questions.

Replies to a top-level comment are indented to the right. This signifies a new comment thread. When two or more comments are replies to one and the same comment, they are displayed with the same color and on the same horizontal layer. The further to the right you go the deeper you go into the convo. If you see the lines suddenly jump back to the left it means that you reached the end of that particular convo. So that new line on the left should connect to where the convo forked into multiple threads (because it had more than one replies), or the next top-level comment.

I hope that makes sense. Turns out this is kinda hard to explain without visual support, lol.

You have to tap the camera icon.

If it’s not there it might depend on the instance/community you’re posting in?

Editing and saving the account did the trick for me! Oddly enough I did try to remove and re-add my account before and it didn’t fix the problem. But when I just tapped edit and then save, everything worked fine again. A bit counter-intuitive but I’m not complaining :)

I appreciate the quick support, thanks!

Is it possible this is a test run for DR to see if he’s fit to replace Perez next season, or is that a long shot? What’s Red Bull’s upside for putting him at AT for half a season?

I am both. It’s best to just roll with it.

Me too… I feel for de Vries. Poor guy didn’t even make it a full season after finally getting his seat.
