Twitter won't let people view posts without being logged in

Twitter is blocking people from viewing tweets and profiles on its website unless they are signed in to the social media site — a move that owner Elon Musk said is “temporary.”

When an unregistered user tries to view a tweet, the site prompts them to log in or sign up for a Twitter account.

Not a surprise. Interested in seeing the solution though . You can use cdns to cache api calls etc but personalized and customized feeds make that tricky. Then again, that's registered users so if they throw tweets behind a public common thread or a few multiple ones, that will eliminate the load.

Musk has run out of coins?

I wondered what the heck is going on everytime I want to check the WTF post comments.

Tried in a different browser as well.

Why does Tesla Man not just do it like Zuckerberg with Instaposts and give you a message to sign in.

Eish.... Feel sorry for the devs who's full time job is to switch servers off.

Edit: I see now the awesome clown has added a feature to sign in and not give you an error.

Maybe now people will stop flooding the threads with Twitter links.

Musk is doing this to help all of you. Stop being glued to your screen.

If you read more than 600 posts a day, you serious need to go see a shrink.

Meanwhile you have SEVENTEEN THOUSAND posts in two and a half years on MyBB.

Now I'll have to make a throwaway YouTube account and reupload the videos there.

Sorry, I didn't even consider you in this scenario.

Only 6000? Bummer, I usually do 6001 posts a day.

What a joke! I'm very frustrated.

This is an absolutely horrendous decision!

It's not "reading", just scrolling I think. Twitter can't tell if you actually read the tweet.

It's just temporary. Enjoy your holiday!
