So today I clicked a twitter link because companies like to use it for official announcements, only to be greeted with a login page. Was annoyed then I remembered nitter exists. It just prompted me to install Privacy Redirect which I should have done ages ago.

Chrome Web Store: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/privacy-redirect/pmcmeagblkinmogikoikkdjiligflglb/related

Firefox Browser Add-ons: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-redirect/

Looks like twitter waited for the reddit API changes to do push this change to try to do it under the radar.

    Our taxes should not go to padding twitter’s wallets

    Or just nationalize Twitter, make it a public utility like water, parks, roads, etc. Then it’s not subject to the whims of some clownshow billionaire dictator. It could be the people’s podium, not some damp troll cave.
