Tell HN: Twitter is growing increasingly unusable without an account
> Unfortunately twitter is going the direction of quora, pinterest, facebook, and medium<p>Don’t forget Reddit. Reddit’s login pop-ups are more aggressive than Twitter’s for me.<p>> Now you can perhaps read ten tweets or replies to a linked tweet without an account before the same thing occurs<p>Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think any company is obligated to provide unlimited access for free without an account. If you’re trying to scroll deep into conversations or someone’s Tweets, it’s reasonable to expect that you’d need to become a user of the website.<p>The only login-wall that doesn’t make sense to me is Medium’s, as the site is primarily designed as a publishing platform rather than a community platform. Forcing users to create an account to read a blog post isn’t a great way to generate wide viewership of your blog posts.
