> It's a long form post on a site I can't read because I have literally half an ounce of actual self respect.

Glad I'm not the only one.

I mean twitter used to be a micro blogging website that people could use without maintaining real blog website

what's the issue here ????

▲nixosbestos 2 hours ago | parent [-]

ITS COMPLETELY UNUSABLE (aka, unreadable) LOGGED OUT.

Are those of you on X really this out of touch?

▲WalterGR 2 hours ago | parent | next [-]

I can read it fine. I’m not logged in to X.

That you personally can’t read it doesn’t imply that everyone else here is a horrible person.

1. I don't believe you. Or at best, they're A/Bing you and letting you read a tiny modicum of content before forcing you to login. Actually, I'll donate $250 to a charity of your choice if you show me you on x.com mobile browser, logged out, and then load that link. *Any charity you want.*

2. I never said that. Weird that you would feel the need to put words in my mouth. Why might that be?

GOD I LOVE HN, I CANT REPLY NOW. WHY DO I BOTHER? Since I can't reply, and I was wrong: https://files.catbox.moe/kksyqz.png

Sure.

The first image is what I see when I visit the page; the second when I dismiss the dialog. The third image is what happens when you take a screenshot of a web page on iOS and save "Full Page", which is why you don't see Chrome's UI or the iOS status bar.

> *Any charity you want.*

I choose Habitat for Humanity.

Edit: Good on ya for following through!

Hey, good for you for following through.

▲QuantumNomad_ 2 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-]

I dislike X and normally use xcancel instead of giving them traffic.

But what you said is not my experience with x.com on mobile the few times I’ve accidentally visited a link from it.

It will show the first post in the thread and some nag popups, but it will let me read it if it’s all in the first post in the thread and not split up across a bunch of posts.

Here is a screen recording from my phone where I visit the Twitter.com link from this thread. The video link expires is 2 days.

The whole text Marlin wrote is in the first post in the thread and therefore fully readable without logging in.

I opened a fresh instance of Tor browser and went to https://x.com/moxie/status/2091218652133732491

I got https://i.imgur.com/JCeLEgG.png which is readable.

Then I enabled mobile browser using devtools and got https://i.imgur.com/ryJk07p.png which is unreadable.

I think mobile vs desktop was the central confusion. Mobile is broken logged out. Desktop works ok.

I (still) like the EFF.

I also hate Twitter and cancelled my account.

I'm able to read it while logged out - and if I wasn't, there's xcancel.com, and others.

You're not doing yourself any favours.
