    Agreed. If someone sends me a twitter link, even if public, I can’t read it as my privacy settings are such that they can’t get a unique ID on me. It forces a log in. Which I can’t, and won’t do.

    My colleague can view public tweets, even if not logged in, as we assume Twitter can uniquely identify them, even if not logged in.

      They’ve stopped forcing a log in entirely, usually you can view the post that’s linked just not any subsequent posts (which of course still ruins post threads, where the user spreads a single post over multiple entries).
