      I mean, I don’t like that either but it doesn’t affect links to tweets.

        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.

          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”?

        Single tweets are rarely useful without being able to read some context that isn’t visible without logging in.
