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.
Any website that needs me to create an account to look at something can go fuck itself honestly…
NY times gets me every time
Always says I’ve hit the free article limit. Never read an article on it ever.
Most news sites that give you “x free articles per month” use cookies to identify by how many you’ve read so simply opening in a private tab almost always resets the counter
Archive.ph has you covered
Applies to Quora as well when I search something up to find an answer and Quora is the first result.
Girlfriend ain’t had period since she got pregat
You used to be able to bypass this by putting a ? At the end of the url, not sure if it still works, but I used to use that trick a lot
And pinterest
image search something
most results are that site
FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
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.

Absolutely
Remember when Elon was protecting the town square or some shit?
Nitter still works y’all…
Yeah but then I have to look at Twitter. Gross.
NSFW links don’g anymore. My favorite artists are either stuck or moving elsewhere.
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 have an extension that redirects all tweets to nitter so I don’t have to deal with that log in screen
I thought they undid that after a few days?
Nope still does it for me. Good riddance honestly.
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.
Use nitter.net
Does that still work after all of this?
Honestly, it’s on the same level as auto playing audio used to be for me. Insta-close.
