I'm calling bullshit. Twitter was always hostile to logged-out users. You could say "Well technically I was talking about 2006 before it got big" so I'll just say it was just as bad 10 years ago as it is today.

I disagree. There was a noticeable change some time after Elon bought it to make it even worse.

No, it definitely was not as bad 10 years ago as it is today. Just objectively not true at all.

Nah 10 years ago I could view the whole website logged out. Now it's been reduced to a single post with no replies.

pretty sure it was even worse ten years ago cause very active twitter users would pay for 3rd party twitter apps (maybe twitter didn't have an official app back then? ~2012-2013)
