Hadn't seen it before, and my first thought was "wow, that's a lot nicer than trying to read via twitter"
Have you considered a HN/generic forum display output format? :)

But I have a version of this to visualise Mastodon discussion, HN discussions, and I have a tool that lets you have discussions directly in the graph format, including being able to tie threads together to help people come to conclusions.
So, sort of. It's all a long way off being usable, though.
Here's an example of another chart produced by my system:

How would you produce that with newlines and tabs? If you're suggesting the usual linear/indented version that existing social media systems use, that's exactly what I'm trying to get away from, so I can properly visualise the entire tree, seeing descendants as descendants, and not as a comment a long way down the page.
Maybe I'm just not understanding what you're suggesting.
