+1 rage against walled gardens

In this case I spent 5 minutes trying to find a different source but the tweet thread is the best I could find unfortunately. There is no official blog post afaiu.

Why not post a direct link to the video that the tweet embeds?

I have considered this as well but the video is a whole keynote about various things. Was not an easy decision.

it's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIBseTi6RVk&t=2270 right?

i'm with you, i used to use nitter with the firefox extension, but it seems to be dying, is there any alternative?

There is https://twstalker.com/ but the site is very very dodgy.

thanks, maybe that will become something later, but i am looking for an browser extension that doing the work for me

Maybe one of these:

https://libredirect.github.io/ https://einaregilsson.com/redirector/

Note the site I linked is very dodgy, so probably not trustworthy.

i checked them, but libredirect removed the twitter option from the config menu (i guess because of the changes in the twitter api) and the other just a generic url to url redirect. but thanks anyway

You can easily add twstalker to the generic one.
