I set up a URL redirect rule in Edge/Brave/Chrome with the extension URL Auto Redirector (previously used Redirector but it was removed, there are other alternatives available for Firefox I'm sure). I also found a similar front end for Instagram but just added a rule yesterday so haven't tested it extensively yet.
I avoid most Twitter/X content after I deleted my account but it's helpful when it gets linked in HN.

- clydethefrog 1y agoFor Kagi users - it's also possible to redirect it in Kagi with redirect rules in search settings: ^https://x.com|https://xcancel.com ^https://instagram.com|https://imginn.com
- Tepix 1y agoThanks. You only need this single regex for instagram: ^https?://(?:www\.)?instagram.com/(.\*)
