I’m not sure if this is the best place for this post, I’m just curious to see what everybody else thinks.
It seems like a lot of communities (outside lemmy) have had enough and are banning twitter links after Elons recent Nazi salute.

Direct xitter links? Yes. Ban them. They bring no value a a screenshot couldn’t provide.
Screenshots can, have been, and will be doctored. Sometimes you read somrthing so insane, you gotta check the source. Except finding anything on that shithole of a site is painful, especially if you don’t have an account, quadruply so on mobile.
Both would be a nice compromise.
Anything worth any value on Twitter will be reported on by another source. Link to those if you want corroborating evidence. The point is to not give the Nazis the traffic at all.
Yeah anything posted to Twitter should be taken with a massive grain of salt anyway, so it doesn’t really matter if it’s a screenshot or a direct link, it should only be considered a hint of something maybe true but never as proof.
