You mean the thing where Twitter used to constantly nag people to login?
Ok. That’s less user hostile.
But is that really worthy of a discussion?
The less sites use such dark patterns the better. And a beads up is nice so people like me who avoided clicking twitter links because I couldn’t be bothered with their gated content might give it another shot. Now if reddit does the same it would be great!
Someone claimed he'd already removed it a while back, then I saw it again.
Possibly it's just not consistent (and/or broken)?
Note that if you are using uBlock Origin some lists might actually be the ones removing that login screen
If we have to be objective, that's a positive step. Of course, coming on the whim of a mercurial CEO, he may re-add it tomorrow.
Of course it is. Geez.
He's doing frontend web development now too? Truly a man of Starkian intellect.
I hope other social media companies follow suit. As someone who tries to stay off social media as much as possible, I find those login walls really annoying.
On the flip side, they help keep me more fully off of those sites..
George Hortz said that was one of the first things he wanted to get rid of so maybe it’s not Elons win.
Because of course George Hotz decides alone to do that without asking anyone...
Despite what people say about him; hes doing gods work.
