First Sphere (https://www.sphere.me), now Quill. Twitter is obviously planning something in this space, but to me, Twitter's magic is in the ability to really consume a lot, from experts, in a short space of time (240 character brevity!).

In depth conversation, spaces, voice, don't really belong on Twitter in my opinion, but I'm sure Twitter knows better than me... I have no skin in that game!

Idk maybe I'm still sour after they killed "We are hunted" 10y ago, but I feel Twitter acquired a number of companies and yet remained virtually unchanged for years.

They acquired WAH to merge it into Twitter Music that they later killed. They bought Vine and wasted its potential, idk if Periscope is still alive or not (also acquired).

Maybe this time it'll be different - their recent acquisitions of Revue and Chroma Labs (which I guess became Twitter Spaces) seems to be kind of working so far

A lot of people use Twitter DMs and complain about that experience having room to improve (e.g. being able to search DMs). Maybe some of these acqui-hires (and that's what they seem to be) will be toward improving DMs?

I guess I’m just horrified at the thought that Twitter needs to acquire a company to figure out how to search DMs.

Well not letting people export and purging all Quill DMs is not a good start.
