I don't think we were directing that ire at you, although sharing a private link is not great, but at twitter. It is a site that shows you nothing if you don't have javascript allowed and when you do you can't scroll for more than a few replies before you get a "log in, now!" pop-up. That predates Musk's takeover BTW.
Therefore I suggest people wanting to read what's on the site use a better frontend to do so.
- smnrg 4y agoGot it, I use Nitter/Fritter extensively myself—I should have thought more about the way I wanted to share an image (still fairly new to being active on HN.) Paradoxically, I thought it would have been better this way rather than sharing a personal website link, or an imgur upload. I will be more mindful about what I am also annoyed by in the future :)
