So if you don’t have a Tw
Having both Bluesky & Twitter embeds is very fair. Maybe add DU embeds too to make sure the liberals are well represented for all to see
Post regged, au I don't know why you post as a dot.
There's nothing fair about supporting Elon Musk. And supporting other embeds does not change the fact that you need an account for Twitter.
Too many people are using the argument " if you don't like it, don't use it". That's what got us into this mess.

I have a new enhancement.
Three options: links, collapsed embed, expanded embed.
What's the default? Links or collapsed?
Also, I am going to add switches for how to handle every kind of tag we support. Sort of a more flexible safe mode. I will also add Reddit to safe mode.
Just change it to links and get rid of the embeds. No favorable treatment.

Elon Musk is a rare genius trying to save the western world from extinction & we are incredibly lucky to be alive in this era.

Embeds look more interesting graphically no matter the content, better than dry boring links you have to risk clicking on. If it doesn’t cost the host anything why wouldn’t you want to include them? It’s nothing illegal or obscene. The only possible harm is that you may disagree on politics
People disagree on things throughout eternity, no reason to shut down connections.

Spanky needs to decide if he's going to provide business to a person who has given the Nazi salute in public and been directly responsible for the deaths of 700,000 children in Africa.
As I said, I don't give a fuq if you happen to like Twitter and you think it's pretty.

Nobody gave a nazi salute, that’s just stupid.
I have no idea what nonsense you are talking about murdering 700K Africans. AIDS? Covid? Not moving them all to Nebraska?

His destruction of USAID led directly to the death of many thousands of people.
It was insanely cruel.

How did 700,000 become "many thousands"? Can you provide an actual link to the proof of excess deaths that have been caused by any reason in Africa over the last 9-12 months? People croak there all the time of treatable diseases and we never stopped all of them even with USAID. We don't stop all of them here either.
Edit: Sorry, I just realized I compared OLG's thread and yours. Yours is a bit more sane.

It's not a troll and you know it.
1) An account is required if you want to check on the bullshyt that maga posts on Twitter
1a) Why?
1b) Inevitably, buried in the replies to that tweet is an easy refutation so you don't have to redo the research. Maga post dozens of these a day so that doesn't scale
2) Elon is moving heaven and earth to force people to create accounts
2a)Why?
2b) Because that's how he makes money, otherwise he'd let people post and read anonymously
3) Spanky inherited an existing system that did not require creating a account just like all other embed types
3a) Why?
3b) Because that's how pre-Elon Twitter operated. Anonymous reading was Allowed
4) Spanky seems to be ok with Elon making money off of this site. He won't fix it now
4a) Why?
4b) Same reason he accepted hundreds of dollars from extreme racists
4c) Why is that?
4d) He's a glutton for money and he doesn't think things through.
Solutions:
1) Ban twitter altogether
or
2) Make twitter at the same class as any other site (just an html link)
This reminds me of the DU posters who swear they don’t view Twitter but are secretly glued to it.
Ditto for using Amazon.
I’m not supporting maga billionaires except for every day for years

As a person who likes to post Twitter links, I endorse this. I'm adjusting my posting style to include the text of the tweet in addition to the link.
I try to choose higher quality tweets (not X's) that include links or videos, but if that's not your cup of tea, I'll try to respect that.

We're going to need to see a Twitter link with the 700k number. Otherwise it never happened and you can cry into your Comfort Whopper tonight per usual.

Libs' destruction of Teslas led directly to the loss of mineral mining jobs and climate change-induced deaths for potentially billions of Africans.
Out of respect for OLG, I won't embed the Twitter source link.

The dismantling of USAID, according to models from Boston University epidemiologist Brooke Nichols, “has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children,” Gawande wrote. He noted that the toll will continue to grow and may go unseen because it can take months or years for people to die from lack of treatments or vaccine-preventable illnesses—and because deaths are scattered.

This quote was from November 2025, 6 months ago, and references 400k children dead. 6 months have passed since that quote -- 700k is quite a reasonable estimate now.

Late-term abortions, if you will. Reducing the surplus population in accordance with CI liberal principles.

So... you are saying it is America's fault kids are starving to death in Kenya?
AI Overview
Almost every country in the world is physically closer to Kenya than the United States is. Because Kenya is located in East Africa, the countries geographically closest to it are its immediate neighbors, whereas the United States is roughly 13,722 kilometers (8,526 miles) away.

Outside of Kenya, The United States is the only country to have a Kenyan President.
