It seems a lot of reddit communities are starting to block xitter as it's painful to use now without an account. Should HN do the same?

The main reason all the subs made this change today is because of the elon nazi salute, not the fact that twitter is hostile to unauthenticated user agents.

Nah. I just wanted to see a source I trusted to be legitimate before sharing a sensational story.

No. Let us decide how we want to handle it. Most of us could handle it ourselves through scripts and extensions if it really bothered us anyway.

No, it's worse now.

Back in 2017, I could still read public profiles, their tweets, and look at the replies, all without logging in.

Now I can't even look at an account page without logging in.
