Here's a suggestion. Right up a quick post that could be possibly be stickied. Give the how-to's on alternatives. Like how to post from Twitter using nitter as the alternative. Please realize, some people just don't know how to do this or just don't know they even exist.
That's good advice, however I'm one of those who don't know how to use nitter, in fact I've never heard of it. I'm just an old carpenter who knows enough about tech and internet to turn on my laptop and type in a reply box.
For those posting a link to Twitter. Instead of "Twitter.com" in the address, type in "nitter.net".
For those of us that want to open a Twitter link, right click your mouse and select "Copy link". Open a new page and paste the Twitter link on the URL. Then, edit it and replace "Twitter.com" with "nitter.net". Now open the link and it takes you to a nitter.net substitute page.
Why is this important? Every time someone clicks on a Twitter link, the data is recorded and used for marketing revenue dollars. Stop feeding the BEAST.
Thank's for taking the time to explain what the nitter.net site does. I never heard of it until now, but will be using it exclusively from now on when referencing a twitter post.
I'm not very well versed in internet technology, hence the suggestion. I'm just well versed enough in the internet to see people get really pissed off about this shit and not offer any solutions.
I hear you. My only solution is abstinence from Twatter, FB and Youtube.
