the [X (Twitter) Thread Reader](https://xquik.com/en/twitter-thread-reader).
Xquik returns the conversation as 1 list.

## Unroll a thread

**1. Copy a post URL**

Copy the URL of a public post from the thread on X.

**2. Paste it into the thread reader**

Open the [X (Twitter) Thread Reader](https://xquik.com/en/twitter-thread-reader) and paste the URL.

**3. Read or save the thread**

Each row is 1 post or reply from the thread. It shows the text, the author and
the date. It adds the likes, reposts and replies.

## Read a conversation on X

On X, search `conversation_id:` with the ID of the post that started the
conversation. The ID is the last part of that post's URL.
