there sure are lots of people still posting twitter URLs even though we all know ad nauseam at this point that they don't work. i'm kind of confused as to why? if you've still got an account there and you wanna share the post i think your only recourse at this point is to take a screenshot of it, right? otherwise you're just pointing people at their sign-up flow

edit:

ah it's the works-on-my-machine effect for people logged in, which is only confusing to me because i habitually check links i paste in incognito first. anyway yeah PSA, remember all that noise about tweets not being viewable from this weekend? those are talking about reality, the words in the posts about that are describing things that are happening in the world, the one that your phone and PC are in

To someone who doesn't have an account anymore, it's made looking at discords almost pointless

last bit was a little rude but my snicker refused to be stifled

i genuinely think sometimes the "omg, they said what?? that's outrageous!" part of the brain and the part of the brain that processes how to actually behave get out of sync sometimes

i think fx/vxtwitter have been updated with workarounds but honestly it's probably best to just move away from posting tweet links in general, unless there really is no other source for whatever it is you're posting about

or at the very least, yeah, provide a screenshot and description of what you're linking to

the unwarned, unexplained, and unapologised twitter links have been the most laughable behaviour i've seen from people pretending to be done with that place. and i'm not talking about now, this has been ridiculous since the first flood of cohost signups.
