    Perhaps a money clip wallet would suit your needs? I can recommend this one. The clip means less layers of leather are needed, therefore keeping it slimmer.

    Why does everyone keep saying this? If it was that easy, someone would’ve done it as soon as Twitter started capsizing, but they haven’t. Why not?

    Well, network effects for one—which Threads can solve for immediately. But also because it’s actually incredibly difficult to scale to twitters size. 368,000,000 daily users is no joke. And significant skew in engagement by user. Then you have to police / moderate effectively, which needs automation via ML IP.

    It’s much harder than everyone thinks
