Is there a way for not Twitter users to read these?

  Yeah, replace x.com with xcancel.com or nitter.poast.org, e.g., https://xcancel.com/Robert_Palgrave/status/1856273405965693430 https://xcancel.com/Robert_Palgrave/status/18562734059656934...

    While poast works, I strongly feel most people on this site are not aligned with what poast represents. Graf has to spend a lot of time (and time = money) getting accounts set up to run nitter, and it would suck if the views of poast users wound up costing the internet a twitter mirror. I strongly recommend people not investigate this unless they think 4chan is quaint. As in, if the reason you are not using X is because of the outrage at Elon and the "typical user" of X, then maybe use xcancel instead.

      fwiw i believe strongly that there would not still be a nitter without graf's work on it. in the space of working on cool shit, he's good people. see: moldbug and urbit, for a similar case.

        oh, totally. I was hoping to avoid people going "i wonder what poast is", but Graf said they've been backlinked before and it's no big deal; but i can't remove my earlier comment. So i guess i misread!

      4chan is probably still 'better' than Xitter : not only it's open web, it's also not taken 'seriously'. Twitter's issues long predate Musk : for instance Mastodon was created as a reaction to the 2012 APIpocalypse.

Thanks. On Twitter, Ethan Mollick seems to imply that Robert Palgrave might be the scientist that triggered the investigation.

> Nice Twitter thread That's a paradox. Maybe it's just me but if you need more than 3 "posts" to say something, put it in a blog and link to it from Twitter. That was excruciating to try and get through (which I failed at doing.)
