I think that if someone only wishes to post a link, then good on them. You can use nitter if that works for you. I agree it would be nice if people took the time to write a more thoughtful post, but I also think that trying to convince the internet to improve its behaviour is antisensible..
Perhaps instead of trying to ask others to do something, you could have added a link to nitter, and a 240 character summary (although in this case the relevant thread is wayyy longer than that and contains relevant images, so good luck!)
