I still have a few accounts I glance at from time to time. Hockey, Game Devs, Artists, etc. who haven't migrated away despite everything, so this is kinda obnoxious.

I created some Redirector (https://einaregilsson.com/redirector/) rules to redirect Tweet and Twitter Profile URLs to their HTML embed equivalents.

Should be able to just import the rules and it seems to work alright with some caveats.

  * I have no idea if this will continue to function.
  * I've only tested some random links from my Discord and Slack groups.
  * Profile links only show the most recent 20 tweets.
  * Tweets will show quote-tweets, but no replies (though maybe that's a good thing).
  * Obviously won't work for mobile.
