Why do people chain post on microblogging platforms rather than link to a blog post? (lemm.ee)

I'll read long posts in either format, but the fragmented format of chained microblog posts, or threads, is mildly distracting at times.

People are less likely to click through to another page compared to opening up a post.

Maybe it has to do with loading time? Same with Lemmy where I'm more likely to open a post and read the comments than I am to open the link and read the post
