I just tried to access it and I get redirection errors. I guess they didn’t account for integration testing during their most recent sprint.

I'm pessimistic that this will actually change much, or drive users to Mastodon. Just like, as much as I've been loving my time with Kbin/Lemmy, I don't think people are ever going to leave Reddit. Most people appear to have a way, WAY higher bullshit tolerance than I do. It's sad. The old guard are unusable, and the new options are withering on the vine.

Why dont ppl just post a screenshot of a tweet instead of linking it, same with reddit posts ?

[–] natarey@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

There are accessibility concerns with doing that, if the poster doesn't provide alt-text. Images are basically unreadable to the vision impaired.

I highly recommend using nitter instances to look at content from Twitter. And with the excellent LibRedirect extension, the process becomes seamless and you can bounce between instances as you please.

And now nitter no longer works.

I like how George Hotz briefly worked at Twitter and got rid of the login after scrolling a bit blocker, and now you can't see anything.

Great reason to embrace #Fediverse

Thanks, Elon

Can confirm.

I guess I'll never read another tweet again 🤷

It seems to be more than individual tweets. The whole site seems down for me if I'm not logged in.

Absolutely wonderful. I love looking at art on Discord, opening the tweet to get the high res pic to save (Yes, I'm aware of adding ?format=jpg&name=large at the end of the URL, already had to do it for some pics), then being blocked. Or trying to see some sports news, then being blocked again.

I wonder what that's going to do to ad revenue as millions of non account lurkers can't see content anymore and won't make an account
