Seems like the alternative nitter is gone as well, which used to be the accepted workaround. IMO at this point twitter should be disallowed on HN.

There used to be alternative websites that would turn a tweet thread into a single webpage (note that this is not what nitter did), but I don't know if they stopped working too?

As parent says, nitter is dead.

I wasn't talking about nitter, I'm talking about websites with names like "threadapp" or similar that would just convert a single thread into a static webpage.

Ive just started flagging stories that are a single tweet with the rest of behind the login wall. The value isnt there.

I was about to mention the exact same. There is no longer a way for the general public to follow conversations on X.

I copy-pasted it to a pastebin

It was very missable.
