Rather than linking to a threads post that is a screenshot of the x.com post with little to no commentary, we should be linking to the original x.com post

or to a nitter instance, where you can actually read responses without signing in:

Considering that Twitter doesn't show the original post for non-logged-in users, the screenshot on Threads actually provides a better reading experience for most people!

Agreed, was slow to load and I just had to find the source post on X to view the real conversation "thread".

This is the first Threads link I've ever seen here. Is that what Threads mainly is, reposting X screenshots and starting a sidechain conversation?

for fucks sakes, don’t link twitter

Use nitter or xcancel
