Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com

There were no “issues”; everything was working completely fine. This is a deliberate decision to force people to turn off tracking protection.

I saw a recommendation to use Firefox’s container extension https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers, but it’s disabled in private browsing windows, and I always use private browsing windows.

      The Gods forbid I try to literally read something

      The real question is why people keep using Twitter despite how impossible it is to even visit the website

        because unlike lemmy where its usually about following topics, twitter is about following people, and migration requires said people who theyre following to also migrate

          While this is true, I think if this is a hassle for most people, then something is very wrong with the world

      Until the creators of the content you need switch, it’s one of if not the hub where the content is.

      This would be easy to “solve” from the reader end if Nitter was still operational, but I haven’t heard from the project or from any alternative in ages.

      Every so often someone posts something on Lemmy or somewhere else which contains a Twitter link that’s interesting or relevant, and so there is value in me visiting it. Just because I don’t “use” Twitter doesn’t mean I don’t end up reading a Twitter post every so often, because other people use it.
