This should be the URL in the post, Twitter requires a login, Bluesky doesn't.

I dislike twitter just as much as the next guy, but i was able to read the conversation without logging in. EU exit point here. Maybe that plays a role?

having to click through each single image is quiet the turn-off though. not missing the platform

I want to reward people for posting on Bluesky instead. If they get more engagement on Bluesky, it'll motivate them to move.
I can see the first post on Twitter, but nothing else. Also in the EU. It seems to be fairly random, really. Probably best to go with a fully working social network where available for this sort of post.
From the EU here, I had to login to read everything.
nevermind. turns out someone else had logged into twitter and forgot to log out. i didn't notice because i haven't been using the site in ages. please ignore my initial comment
Why support a workaround-hack for a dying platform instead of a well working alternative that many shift towards already?
Because some people don't agree with your biased characterization.
The workaround service is called "xcancel.com", I think the characterization is there already.
Is it biased to call him a racist? A Neo-Nazi? Personally, I don't want to be associated with or provide help to that.
I prefer the nitter.net instance, it doesn't have any JS-only captchas.
As much as I hate Twitter I was unable to read this @ Bluesky at my iPhone 13 Mini because left/right arrows covered words, this is a mobile design straight from the mid 00s. So bad.
