Everything worked fine until Elon Musk took over.

    They’ve just introduced a new feature where you can’t view the site at all without being signed in!

        They’re going to kill that next, that’s for sure.

      They’ve had this mostly locked out for a while. Certain direct links you could click but that’s about it. The links they sent in their emails didn’t work without a login.

      Why would they want you to create an account SO BAD that they would hide their content if you didn’t?

      I would get it if it was a newspaper, but on twitter we are the content creators.

        You’re not a “content creator”. You’re a set of demographic data to be matched against LAL campaigns. Why should they open the site - and thus the ad spend - to anyone who isn’t being targeted? That’s what the platform is, it’s a way to show ads to people who give up their demo data. I’d imagine non-account users have a very low conversion rate, so don’t bother spending on them. Therefore, put up the wall so that if they want to see things on the platform, they have to agree to the ads as well
