I remember for roughly a month after Elon bought twitter he opened the site up again and public viewers could browse it. Now you can't even click play on a video lol.
- ekianjo 2mo agoYou can still open a single post just fine
- sillysaurusx 2mo agoCan anyone verify that you can/can’t see a video if you’re not logged in?
- jetrink 2mo agoI can see the video and view the first three seconds or so, but after that, it throws up a login prompt.
- fragmede 2mo agoAn incognito window let me watch the whole 25 seconds with the user writing something and three book writing back, but I don't know if my IP or incognito cookies or anything else are special.
- sillysaurusx 2mo agoIt would be ironic if you have to actually sign out from Twitter, not just use incognito mode, to bypass the signup nag. Or if they mark IPs as “signed up” or something. Thanks.
- sillysaurusx 2mo agoThank you. As someone who tweets, this is helpful to know.

- someguyiguess 2mo agoYou can. You just have to close 3 or 4 “please sign up” nag popups.
- chrismorgan 2mo agoI can see the video poster, but clicking on it opens a login popup rather than playing it. However, the thing is a link, and opening https://x.com/MaximeRivest/status/2073544461473169432/photo/1 https://x.com/MaximeRivest/status/2073544461473169432/photo/... directly does play it.
- amarant 2mo agoI can see the entire video and I don't even have an account to log into.
