I wish people would stop posting twitter links, they're a coin toss if they're even viewable

- engineer_22 6mo agoIf I can read the wall street journal without paying for it, you can see a tweet without a login....
- Analemma_ 6mo agoThere are various extensions you can get to automatically redirect Twitter links to xcancel or something, very much recommended. I don't like that these get submitted either, but unfortunately people do post worthwhile stuff there and only there, and I don't want to just categorically forbid those posts.
- mixtureoftakes 6mo agoI like these being submitted. Twitter still does have quite a lot of unique content that either appears there first or isnt accessible anywhere else at all, unlike paid article websites, previews without logging in actually work for the most part, and xcancel as you said is a thing. Which extension are you using for redirects?
