Why not ? They did it for JSFiddle. They own the platform, so technically they do what they want.

- hu3 7y agoThe backlash from banning GitHub links would be magnitudes larger than JSFiddle.
- solarkraft 7y agoYeah, but does Twitter care what its users think?
- hombre_fatal 7y agoThe low-effort snark is unnecessary and weakens the conversation. At least make it witty. JSFiddle is a pretty low tier target that most people won't miss. Github links aren't. Also, I'd imagine Github Pages is more responsive to taking down scamware, it at least requires an account, and has more of an interested in keeping malicious behavior off the platform.
- darkpuma 7y agoWhat demographic does twitter like to hire? Probably people who use github a lot, huh?
