My 2 cents.

When/If X allows viewing pages, such as the link that you posted, without javascript on, then I will start looking at it. In the mean time, It's a waste of time.

That would be my compliant. Not the content, It's not viewable. There are some scrapers for python that one can use. But I don't like any of them. You have to use their API.

If you can't make a page that at least shows the basic text content without running huge bandwidth scripts, then I'm not using it. Twitter used to load just the basic text of a page without scripts. That's fine if you can't see images, if the menu's don't work, if video's don't work.

Edit:
Even youtube can be searched/viewed without scripts.

Well, I was clearly wrong...

It was a $25bn tax write-off: https://www.theverge.com/2023/10/30/...mployee-shares

“the fair market value per share is determined by the Board of Directors based on a number of factors in a manner that complies with applicable tax rules.”

Yeah baby.

"Elon Musk’s social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, announced it will launch peer-to-peer payments this year, according to a blog post.
The company did not offer specific details about how the payments will work or when they will officially launch.
Musk has been pushing to transform X into an “everything app,” where users can carry out a variety of functions, from posting to managing finances." https://www.cnbc.com/2024/01/09/elon...his-year-.html

How's about some jaundiced AI slagging off any strident opinion (on anything) on X or oither places as an idea? Sure, ways of gaming it would be found, but you'd adjust the LLM for that?

Would that be a runner for social media which is surely going to go wild in a US, & possibly British, EU & Irish election year?
