Twitter has announced the launch of a new feature called

twitter thread.
A Twitter thread is a string of tweets sent as a reply to
each other. This method was invented by users as a way to link all the tweets
within a topic together and make it easy to read them all in one place. Opening
any of the tweets in the thread would let you see the previous and subsequent
tweets in the thread.

within a topic together and make it easy to read them all in one place. Opening
any of the tweets in the thread would let you see the previous and subsequent
tweets in the thread.
Each line represents one tweet, with a character limit of
280 as per usual. You can also add the same amount of media – like GIFs,
images, videos, and more – to any individual tweet in the thread, as you could
on Twitter directly.

and link a second tweet to it and so forth. Once you are done, you can hit
‘Tweet all’ and the entire thread will be posted at once. If you feel like
adding to the thread later, you can tap the new ‘Add another tweet’ button.
