Why is it a long-form post more suited to Livejournal or blog post and in no way written to work on Twitter?
That in itself is indicative of the problem.

It would be nice if there was a platform that was as good at short messages as Twitter while also being good for longer more deliberative posts.
Of course the problem for any new social network is that it is hard for it to become successful, due to network effects.
Platforms don't just stay used the way they were intended or created to be used. Threads became a wildly successful thing on Twitter, and they embraced the phenomenon rather than fighting against it. That's actually a characteristic of good adaption to trends -- something that Twitter could do far more of.
