The reason is that they all either implemented threaded comments or didn’t put a message limit. The result is that you don’t have to check the conversation all the time, because you can always take part in it later. Even years later. There’s no social isolation effect, no addiction effect and no reason to keep checking.

Watch 2,000 marbles come together to make beautiful music | The Verge:

The Wintergartan Marble Machine, built by Swedish musician Martin Molin, is unlike anything you have ever seen before. Comprising 3,000 wooden pieces, and using 2,000 marbles, the elaborate music-box looks like a loom met a cotton gin and the two started making beautiful music together.
