Twitter Links

Nothing to do with my seemingly unique issues with embedding; but is there any chance we could ban twitter links until they stop promoting child porn?

Nothing to do with me, you'll have to speak to the owners for that

Fair enough, would that be @Blackbeard ?

Yup, I can help. I'll go take a look and let you know.

Complete ban may not be the best recourse but we can have Twitter/X go through approval process so mods will have to approve before it gets posted.

IMO, It depends on what you're after.
On the one hand, there's the prevent of (presumably) accidental posting of child porn on TRF; on the other, there's a point of principle in not supporting a site that promotes child porn.

I'd personally favour a ban.
I'd whilst mod approval would only cover the former.
I guess a link without embedding would be an option (if plausible) - and a board norm of describing/quoting what the link says would be a compromise position.

I'll go take a look at these options.
