If you share a link from twitter to other platforms you used to see a preview… but not for a while now. Doesn’t matter if it’s Facebook or Lemmy, twitter.com replies with a 404 on links that work fine even without being logged in.

Are they incompetent or is this a strategy to limit incoming traffic? 🤣

    Sir, this is Lemmy. The correct terms are “fuck cars” and “capitalism bad”.

      “Capitalism bad” is the most annoying one. We’re all reminded every day that capitalism is bad, comments which just mechanically repeat an overwhelmingly popular opinion without adding anything to the discussion are something I hoped we’d left to die with reddit.

        What’s so fundamentally different about Lemmy that made you think that the people would act differently than normal?

          I figured the buttom-of-the-barrel commenters wouldn’t care about the enshittification and couldn’t be bothered to move!

            Okay I see where you’re coming from with that. Unfortunately it seems those commenters are everywhere!
