They are not banning links to other platforms:
"We recognize that certain social media platforms provide alternative experiences to Twitter, and allow users to post content to Twitter from these platforms.
In general, any type of cross-posting to our platform is not in violation of this policy, even from the prohibited sites listed above."
- jamespwilliams 4y agoYes they are and they explicitly say as much: > we will remove any free promotion of prohibited 3rd-party social media platforms, such as linking out (i.e. using URLs) to any of the below platforms on Twitter Your quote is referring to cross-posting from other sites to Twitter, not linking.
- mytailorisrich 4y agoStill, the way this is drafted I don't interpret it as banning every single type of links but rather promotion of your profile of your content on another platform. It's not as explicit to me as you suggest. I guess we shall see soon enough.
- dredmorbius 4y agoGiven that pg's Twitter profile's just been banned for indirectly referencing his Mastodon profile link on his own website, your assertions lack any credibility or plausibility whatsoever. <https://archive.vn/ucUdh https://archive.vn/ucUdh> <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34041985 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34041985>
