Chris Best now None of this is true. 1. Substack links have been obviously severely throttled on Twitter. Anyone using the product can see this. 2. We have used the Twitter API, for years, to help writers. We believe we're in compliance with the terms, but if they have any specific concerns we would love to know about them! We'd be happy to address any issues. 3. @Matt Taibbi is not and has never been an employee of Substack. He writes a Substack, and gets paid directly by his readers. That writers making money seems to be such a strange concept is telling. This is very frustrating. It's one thing to mess with Substack, but quite another to treat writers this way.
Harry Bolz @elonmusk Replying to @BretWeinstein 1. Substack links were never blocked. Matt's statement is false. 2. Substack was trying to download a massive portion of the Twitter database to bootstrap their Twitter clone, so their IP address is obviously untrusted. 3. Turns out Matt is/was an employee of Substack. Readers added context they thought people might want to know Regarding the first claim, Substack links themselves may not have been blocked, but interactions (likes, retweets, and replies) with tweets containing Substack links were definitely blocked. Preventing engagement with tweets will drastically limit their exposure. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/20... Do you find this helpful? 5:49 AM.

Oliver Alexander @OAlexanderDK Matt Taibbi is leaving Twitter. You can't make this s--- up. Textbook "Leopards Eating People's Faces Party" moment. Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi 18m Of all things: I learned earlier today that Substack links were being blocked on this platform. When I asked why, I was told it's a dispute over the new Substack Notes platform... 182 358 1.565 ₁103K ↑ Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi 9m Since sharing links to my articles is a primary reason I come to this platform, I was alarmed and asked what was going on. I was given the option of posting articles on Twitter instead. I'm obviously staying at Substack, and will be moving to Substack Notes next week. 80 107 ₁27,2K ↑ 4:17 PM Apr 7, 2023 3.6M Views 457 2,128 Retweets 300 Quotes 15.5K Likes 474 Bookmarks
