These platforms are really trying to push users away, aren’t they…

    Oh no! All the tweets I wasn’t viewing can continue being unviewed!

    In all seriousness, I doubt this has the effect Musky boy thinks it will. I imagine he thinks it’ll drive signups to view the content. But us humans have short attention spans - if I can’t view it immediately, I certainly won’t waste more time creating an account to see something. And for the FOMO element - if someone sends me a twitter link and I can’t see it, I’ll just ask for a screenshot because I don’t have twitter. Just further decreasing traffic. But maybe that’s intentional since they’re not paying their server costs. 🤷‍♂️
