Just like no one wants to sign into Twitter to read one tweet.
I mean, I don’t like that either but it doesn’t affect links to tweets.
It very often does
Single tweets are rarely useful without being able to read some context that isn’t visible without logging in.
It does however affect getting updates from government agencies, and others who insist on only disseminating real-time information to the public via Twitter.
For instance: https://twitter.com/WakaKotahiWgtn
This is the account for traffic events (road closures, traffic accidents, etc) in my city. Not signed in, the latest visible post is from February 2023.
Since I don’t have a twitter account, this is now functionally useless.
the latest visible post is from February 2023
If you scroll down far enough, there are posts from March and August, but they were “less popular” tweets. Incredibly annoying move by twitter. Who wants to regularly view tweets sorted by “Top All Time”?
Go to the city’s website, they should still have that information accessable via government sites. Buried, but it should still exist.
While true, the point is that Twitter does require sign in to view content, regardless of that information is elsewhere.
Have you tried contacting your government for this issue? From my experience public services are often open about Mastodon once they realize it’s the same thing as Twitter, but accessible to everyone.
I have not. I personally don’t live in a region where disaster notices are often necessary and I don’t have offspring that I have to care for that may be affected, so I’m not really the demographic for the service. I do hope more and more start branching out to the likes of Mastodon or maybe better yet, hosting their own instances.
Send me a link
Enough fucking Musk spam, we already know this. We didn’t need some rich jackass to validate this.
Cool yeah, no one wants to have to log in with a Twitter account either.
This just in: broken clock is right twice a day.
Not if broken because it’s missing the hands
Ugh… I guess it’s time to dust off this classic:
I also hate having to login every 10 minutes to another windows password shit because hey it’s secure!
Who gives a fuckingdickleshit about this asshole
I only keep twitter installed so I can check service outages.
Why do I need a twitter account to do that?
Oh shit now Elon is going to try to buy all of Linux.
No one wants to log in to look at twitter posts either

Wow, I wonder about his opinion on stubbing your toe.
Buy Microsoft you fucking coward
The entire global economy is held together by Excel. No thank you
I’d be happy. But too late to make Windows 10’s name Windows X, so it probably won’t happen.
He can rename it Windows X11 and piss off everyone
The more funny part of this statement is he’s too fucking dumb to Google “set up windows 11 without Microsoft account” and follow exactly 3 steps to bypass the OOBE wizard.
They break whatever process people use whenever they feel like it.
Whether the loopholes are incompetence or just for the sake of them being able to claim “you don’t need an account”, they definitely aren’t stable and consistent options. And it’s pretty clear that at some point they’re going to cross the line and just make you have an account.
What? Ctrl+F10 for Command Prompt and then
oobe\bypassnrohas always worked, and I don’t see Microsoft removing it anytime soon. Who do you think put thebypassnro.batscript in theOOBEdirectory on every Windows installation media?
Who uses Windows 11 anyway? I’ve personally been running Linux since 2017, and rarely have to touch Windows these days.
