did you just provide a TLDR for a tweet?!
- Brajeshwar 15y agoAnd I voted him for that. I don't have to click, switch tab and read the tweet. :-)
- jsnell 15y agoI appreciate it, given how long a web page showing a single tweet takes to load.
- ben0x539 15y agoFollowing a twitter link involves copying the url, pasting it to the address bar, backspacing the "#!/" and adding "m." before twitter.com, because twitter's dumb hashbang scheme can't deal with noscript. Reading the tl;dr is much faster!
- xenophanes 15y agoThe link works for me in mac safari.
- ranit8 15y agoI use noscript and I get this horrible url, but it shows the correct tweet (i'm not logged in). Yet it's much better reading the posted tldr. https://twitter.com/BenThePCGuy/statuses/184123838949359616?_escaped_fragment_=/BenThePCGuy/status/184123838949359616#!/BenThePCGuy/status/184123838949359616
- eavc 15y agoIn this case, TL should stand for 'twitter link.' They can be a pain. : )
- GFischer 15y agoWell, in my case I have Twitter (and Facebook) banned at work. Fortunately I'm the only one wasting my time on Hacker News, otherwise it'd be blocked as well. Edit: the recommendation "flee any company that filters your Internet" also applies to my case.
