Twitter locked behind login page.
(lemm.ee)
So today I clicked a twitter link because companies like to use it for official announcements, only to be greeted with a login page. Was annoyed then I remembered nitter exists. It just prompted me to install Privacy Redirect which I should have done ages ago.

Looks like twitter waited for the reddit API changes to do push this change to try to do it under the radar.
Twitter is way more prominent than reddit. I doubt that there's a secret plan
If anything, Splez is too dense to notice that Musk seems to be intentionally/unintentionally ruining Twitter. It's really hard to imagine how someone could look at "ad revenue down 70%" and think wow, that's what we need to emulate!
