Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com
There were no “issues”; everything was working completely fine. This is a deliberate decision to force people to turn off tracking protection.
I saw a recommendation to use Firefox’s container extension https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers, but it’s disabled in private browsing windows, and I always use private browsing windows.
The Gods forbid I try to literally read something
The real question is why people keep using Twitter despite how impossible it is to even visit the website
because unlike lemmy where its usually about following topics, twitter is about following people, and migration requires said people who theyre following to also migrate
While this is true, I think if this is a hassle for most people, then something is very wrong with the world
Umm, lemmy is a reddit like fediverse site. Mastodon is closer to what Twitter is. The only difference between the two is that twitter has a ranking algorithm whereas mastodon goes chronologically.
where in the post did i not (indirectly imply it). Thats why the adoption of Lemmy was more logical than the adoption of Mastodon. a Twitter clone requires the people being followed to also move. a reddit clone doesn’t, hence why migration is easier here than over at Mastodon. It fundamentally is due to how its used. (topics vs people/orgs)
