I think that was a lot more justifiable when Twitter reliably let logged out users read tweets. X seem to tweak it all the time, or maybe it’s just broken a lot, but sometimes I can’t even load a tweet in a browser that isn’t logged in.

They broke it not too long before Musk bought it when they wanted to boost user numbers.

It'll frequently display tweets from literal years ago as being the latest.

It's why proxies/mirrors are often linked rather than Twitter itself.

They don't seem to care to fix it, which implies that it's intentional. Seems completely stupid but what do I know?
