Explain the problem as you see it
Tana does not allow using line breaks to structure the content of a single node
Why is this a problem for you?
Whether it's a verse of a poem, or a single tweet – line breaks can have meaning and help in structuring thinking.
The only current way of noting "these two lines of text belong together and/or form a cohesive thought" is one of the following:
- Put both lines into a single node, no line break. Horrible to read.
- Put both lines into separate lines as sibling nodes. Unclear that the lines belong together and should be referenced together.
- Put both lines into separate lines, with one line the "parent" node of the other line. Creates artificial hierarchy that is not necessarily implied by the text. Impossible to see content of both at a glance.
This artificial restriction is strange because Tana does not place any other restrictions on the size or shape of a node. I can put thousands of characters into a single node without a problem, but I am offered no way of structuring a node that contains even just 240 characters.

Allow line breaks inside a node
