i would rather see bluesky banned because I think it woukd be funny

[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 1 points 4 hours ago

Maybe we need some labelling system (like CW:x.com) so people who don't want to see it can filter it out. (of course would require lemmy to support filters too).

What about a technical solution?

If someone posts a twitter link the backend should rewrite it to an xcancel link. I think it would be a pretty simple fix that would prevent sending traffic to once of the worst fash sites while also making it easy for people to post links.

[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 1 points 4 hours ago

I don't really like xcancel. It doesn't even appear to archive stuff and is slow as fuck.

Ban video posts with no description first

[–] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 11 points 15 hours ago
[–] BobDole@hexbear.net 37 points 16 hours ago

We would have reddit screenshots of twitter screenshots

  • provide link or lib

  • linking directly to x results in week long ban, USE FUCKING XCANCEL IM NEVER GETTING AN ACCOUNT

[–] Enjoyer_of_Games@hexbear.net 2 points 7 hours ago

Linking to the original source is always better. Work around sites come and go leaving deadlinks. Let your browser worry about redirecting to xcancel.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 24 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

People would probably finally start using xcancel

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 8 points 14 hours ago

I wasn't convinced until now.

Use xcancel, you assholes

Banning twitter posts would be asinine. Hexbear already tried to do that when Elon bought twitter and it failed.

This is because many news agencies, journalists, public figures, and even governments post new information on twitter before any other website.

A twitter post is good as long as the hexbear post gives a link to the tweet and the tweet is from a reliable twitter account.

The worst posts on hexbear are the reposted images and videos from reddit without verifying that the material is legitimate or linking to the original source.

Naw, let's just give it a try

[–] dead@hexbear.net 7 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (2 children)

it's always people with 0 posts telling me how to post. I say this to mean that everyone should post more.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 6 points 13 hours ago

i don't need to post to know a link to a video with no description is low-effort and low-quality

[–] GoodBleanis@hexbear.net 4 points 14 hours ago

Ok, let's not do it then doggirl-thumbsup

[–] somename@hexbear.net 11 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

I only post from X dot com, the everything app.

What is this “twitter”?

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 18 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

[–] comfy@lemmy.ml 5 points 13 hours ago

>newfriends cant meme arrow

[–] FloridaBoi@hexbear.net 7 points 15 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 5 points 15 hours ago

at least that says what it says in the title and alt text

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 5 points 15 hours ago

Since lemmy doesn't really allow hypertext, I think I would be okay with pictures of ergodic text like House of Leaves

[–] Guamer@hexbear.net 6 points 13 hours ago

all of our hearts would grow 3 sizes

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 12 points 16 hours ago

Twitter screenshots have been with us since the days of old on the chapo subreddit.

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 7 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

what would happen if we banned r/trueanon reposts

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 7 points 14 hours ago

It'll be all r/tankiethedeprogram posts

[–] Athena5898@hexbear.net 3 points 13 hours ago

I honestly don't know how anyone goes on that hellsite anymore. Any screenshots I get are from other sources.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 6 points 16 hours ago
[–] GoodBleanis@hexbear.net 2 points 14 hours ago

Would Twitter screenshots as Beanis thought bubbles still be allowed?
