It's particularly annoying if you're blocking scripts - even if you allow java for this site, the twitter embeds still wont load. Probably because twitter java doesn't also get allowed? I don't know, But since I started using a script blocker, I have to open the link in a new tab and then click again to open the twitter page - I hardly bother anymore.
The direct link is even more fragile than the archive. Screenshots are constantly used to trick people, both on this and normie platforms. You've been here for how long!? how can you not know this?
I will not be doing this. The entire reason big government tech blocks content is to prevent it from going viral. Offering only screenshots has negative side effects:
It terminates the sharing chain.
It prevents copying and pasting the text.
It removes hyperlinks to additional information
It prevents searching.
It makes it difficult to determine if the content is real or has been faked.
Looking at the image will not tell us if a post has been flagged or deleted, nor if an account has been suspended or terminated. We should be aware if things are censored.
It lowers the number of hits, thereby depriving the creators of recognition, the sense of making a difference and knowing the extent to which their work has reached others.
It is like putting the megaphone of social media on mute. I will share social media links rather than screenshots.
Not sure if anyone else noticed, but twitter just restricted unlogged in no-account users from even scrolling through someone's twitter feed.
you will begin to notice that big tech 1 has a vast TOS that no one understands that gives them all rights to earn money with your content and feed it to predictive AI, and 2 restricts the flow of information more than they spread it and 3 only uses their promotional 'watch this' and 'trending' functions to promote the same agenda which is take the poison vax and die that way, or starve.
Screenshots of Twitter are 100% pointless. It's an image, meaning it takes 4.6 seconds to generate fake content that says anything I like.
Further, screenshots are worthless for sharing with normies. Anyone not brain dead will immediately ask for the link instead.
And finally, who cares if we save Twitter some bandwidth? They will never run out of money because of the left. The rankings are completely fake anyways. If they wanted them higher or lower, that's where they would be on the rankings. But instead they are where they are because that's where they want to be listed.
TIME OUT --> Can we all stop with the fucking Twitter link posting? Not only is it annoying to load but for saving/sharing wise, if it does not have a video, screenshot and upload image. Stop giving Twitter traffic. Stop making us load Twitter traffic.

Java web plugins were a thing for a long time, dunno if they still are - so it's a bit ambiguous. Better to shorthand JavaScript as JS.
All social media posts need to be archived and the archive shared.
I think that was the whole point. Everything you say can be used in evidence against you.
What about nitter?
Screenshots are also easily faked.

I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today
+1 also reddit, facebook, snapchat, any "news" site or media company - god the list just goes on and on.
Nitter that, 10-4
Eff twitter
Not to mention Twitter will have censored anything of real value by the time we click it...
Down votes don't mean anything, reddit immigrant fuck

People who write good things need their voices amplified, not muffled. Traffic helps. You don't have to support content creators, but I choose to.
Even better, quit thinking Twitter is reality

Guess what my first question is going to be after seeing your 600kb jpeg? Link please. Because this is the internet and I don't believe you.
Sure if you agree to stop posting the twitter screenshots AND you agree to compensate everyone for their time searching for the source on twitter.
Deal?
I think we all get the gist.
