Threads are linear enough to capture thoughts naturally as they happen, but flexible enough that you can connect between them. You can quote and build on previous threads without losing momentum– balancing immediate capture with long term context switching.
The challenge is creating those connections as you think. Distill focuses on short threads and AI that makes you think deeper about what you're capturing– turning capture into active thinking.
One of the reasons I'm making Distill is that in a world with access to practically infinite knowledge, connections and context matter more than the content itself.
