Awww, you didn’t publish this post to Twitter as a thread! 😄

I’m glad to see you found the Twitter-related UI we added to the block editor useful: there was very much a focus on providing immediate feedback (so you can make quick edits specifically for Twitter), but to keep it as subtle as possible, so it didn’t get in the way of your writing. I really wanted to avoid a situation where tweets would be generated weirdly, it had to create something that read like a Twitter thread. Comparing the post I wrote to the thread it created, you can see some of that in action: long paragraphs are split up at sentence breaks, consecutive short paragraphs are merged into a single tweet where possible, headings cause a new tweet to start, and it generally tries to apply Twitter conventions to how everything is formatted.

There’s a lot more that could be done with this feature, but I think it’s ready for folks to start using, and we can iterate on it based on wider feedback. I do have one request for now, though: if there are plugin devs who’ve made blocks that they think would translate well to the Twitter format, I’d love to see some examples, as adding plugin support is high on my TODO list. 🙂
