Discovered the app on Twitter, it's amazingly good at recording product demos

Hey, after I learned that Twitter acquired Revue, I decided to build a mashup app that converts Revue newsletters to Twitter threads.
I used an algorithm that splits along text into tweets from another project that ensures that the sentences never slice and the thread is easy to read.
I've built it using Preact, CSS, Firebase (Firestore/Functions).

Congrats with the launch! Proud to see that https://chirr.app inspired you!
I may be alone in this, but I genuinely think editing is bad a feature in the context of the way twitter works. Considering the problems it already has a platform, the last thing it needs is for people to be able to edit tweets after they have reached critical velocity.
You're right, and I suppose that's why Twitter doesn't add it. But when you write a thread and then spot a typo right in the middle, it's a disaster. You don't have to deal with clunky Twitter UI but also have to recreate the content (images, text).
Chirr does not update the content but removes the edited part of the thread and republishes it, so it's impossible to abuse.
Another thing I working on is delayed publishing ala Gmail.
Neat use of ‘backdrop-filter’
Thanks! ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
Have you considered adding a very short link into each tweet (or into the first/second tweet), whose contents (as a Twitter card) could be later updated to provide corrections?
I didn't. It sounds like a fun idea but not sure if the content consumers would understand it, and also Twitter caches the card content (not sure for how long though), so it might just not work.
