    And Instagram. Their website won’t even load on iOS, it’s just a blank white screen.

    You know what will always be safe to send people? Fediverse links! Our shit actually works and won’t scare people away.

      Or a screenshot. Please send me a screenshot instead of a link to whatever you’re going to show me.

      This is a problem in instant messaging. In situations where I would have linked to a page containing an image, I’ve been in the habit of saving the image and sending it to the other person directly. It’s faster. And I’ll be honest I’m not writing attributions or credits when I do that unless they actually ask for the source. It would be better if everyone shared things by their actual original source, but like I said it’s faster. Youtube is one of the only mainstream commercial sites still decent for this.

        DuckDuckGo still lets you search, view and save images without going to the webpage.

        Better privacy too.

      Yeah, Google should really derank Pinterest for their BS. It’s ruined image search.

    Oh yeah, I haven’t visited Twitter since they added this. I have an account, I just can’t be bothered to log in.

      I literally cannot make an account, I’ve been trying for years, it doesn’t accept any of my email addresses or phone numbers… I think I’d have to make a gmail just to make a twitter

        They let me use a Hotmail address for my first account, but I made it when I was a kid and when I tried to change my birthday they banned it. My second account was made using that sign in with Google feature.

      I thought they did too, but I just tried it and I got the login page. [Edit]: Maybe they just did it for Google and a few other big companies?

      It keeps happening intermittently for me. Sometimes it asks for a log in and sometimes allows me to see it.

      I can never view the replies though.
