    It might be faster than you think. I know a lot of people who used to look at/share tweets without an account.

    Since the X rebrand, it works about 30% of the time for me.

    Twitter had a lot of users, but also a whole lot of people who used the platform passively without signing up (and were either uninterested in doing so or incapable).

      oh right that’s something I completely forgot about! I don’t use the site/app myself.

      Hard pushing accounts and I think charging an annual fee to deter bots can push others out harder.

      it would make me so happy to see Ex-Twitter fail.
