Has No Life - Lives on TB
I see alot of Twitter posts that are blind links... no idea what they are about and no copy of the message. In the past, I could click the blind link and see a small comment on the topic, or a chain of comments. Sometimes these are very good.

But X has now blocked the ability to see the posts unless you are logged in. I don't have an account and don't plan to get one. Also, what happens when those twit posts are deleted? You have a blind link on TB2000 to nowhere.

So, the question- shouldn't we be posting the meat of the links we putting on this forum?

Merged your thread with existing discussion.

It's not a quick fix.

Is there a way to see twitter/X posts anymore (without an account)? Since the "changes" a few months back, it's a real hit or miss (mostly miss) on whether it will open or redirect to log in.
