According to this, spase.com was registered in 2005. Spase, Inc was incorporated in 2019. This company is accusing the owners of the domain, who had it for 14 years, of domain squatting and trying to take it away from them.
My sympathies lie more with the long-term owners of the domain, and not a recently formed company that is trying to take over a domain name they don't own.
There was some stuff about unreasonable claims made by the squatter and that doesn’t sound good but as this is a trying of tweets rather than a paragraph of text it was hard to follow.
I am not complaining about twitter’s constraints per se — you can like it or not. But it works against the needs of making a coherent argument or narrative that requires context to be maintained (“on the stack” as it were) in order to understand subsequent statements.
Running text allows you to enter a brief “flow” state to get both Gestalt and detail. Sure, you can break an essay into chunks but you can also commute to work in a tank. Just because it’s possible doesn’t mean using the wrong tool is effective or convenient.
For future founders: if you file a domain dispute, put all your arguments up front. Don't expect a chance to reply. Make sure you satisfy all 3 points: your rights, their lack of rights, and their bad faith registration. I hope you don't have to go through what Spase did.
