Stop referencing Twitter posts. The only thing I see in it is a popup that I should sign up for their platform.

You can use xcancel.com or farside.link's nitter redirect to avoid that, if you're on Android it's easiest to use URLcheck‡ with these chunks added to the pattern checker:
``` "Twitter to Nitter": { "regex": "^https?:\\\/\\\/(www\\.|mobile\\.)?(twitter|x)\\.com\\\/(.)", "replacement": "https:\/\/farside.link\/nitter\/$3", "enabled": "true" }, "Twitter image to Nitter": { "regex": "^https?:\\\/\\\/(pic\\.twitter|pbs\\.twimg)\\.com\\\/(.)", "replacement": "https:\/\/farside.link\/nitter\/pic\/$1", "enabled": "true" }, ``` (I haven't updated my copy of the Twitter image regex for the rename because I haven't seen any X.com image links and upstream seems dead)

Even more annoying when the twitter post in question is literally just a screenshot. Put it in the blog post.
