Can we PLEASE get rid of the "X" share button and replace it with a BlueSky button? n/t

[mahina]

1. Seconded. Thankful for EarlG and Skinner and Elad and all DU

[Metaphorical]

2. Agreed

X is not a safe place anymore.

[maxrandb]

16. It's not about it being a "safe space"

Safe Spaces are for snowflake MAGAts.

It's that XHitler (pronounced - Schliter) is pro-nazi.

DU shouldn't link to pro-nazi sites.

[D23MIURG23]

32. 100% this. Kick Eloon in his fucking wallet. n/t

[sunflowerseed]

3. Yes!! Please

8. eloninate all Twitter links - yes please

[ShazzieB]

9. I vote "YES" to this!

Now that the Muskratfucker is so thoroughly enmeshed with Trump, seeing anything from X here makes me cringe.

[FakeNoose]

10. I won't click on X posts anymore, can't understand why DUers are posting them

Please stop!

If you must show anything from the Xwitter swamp, please make a screenshot of the X post, and post the screenshot that has no live links. That's all that should be allowed here.

[pazzyanne]

11. I don't open X posts either! nt

[Native]

34. I wish DU would make it easier to post screenshots.

[RandomNumbers]

40. I'm pretty sure that would raise costs considerably.

So even though I kinda wish it too, I'm just going to have to deal with the image hosting myself one of these days.

[FakeNoose]

43. It's so easy to use the Imgur hosting site

https://imgur.com/

I use Imgur all day long when posting stuff on DU. However I wouldn't be able to do it if I didn't have a mouse and keyboard. I can understand why this would be a barrier for anyone who is posting from their cellphones.

[Snarkoleptic]

12. 100%!! fugg Musk

[defacto7]

13. Kick

[paulkienitz]

14. should not be difficult at all

[damifino10]

15. To Whom It May Concerning "X"

If any posting dealing with X, I will no longer open any of them. Fuck eLoon Muscovite

[kimbutgar]

17. Yes EarlG

Please make it so.

X is toxic and I would love your wonderful site be X free!

[angrychair]

[bsiebs]

23. I heartily vote yes!

[Blue Owl]

24. Fuck Elon Musk and everything he owns

[EarlG]

25. We are already working on this

X embeds and the X share button will be replaced with Bluesky equivalents soon. (The embeds are proving more difficult to get working than expected.)

[usonian]

27. Since twitler-linking posts are already marked can we just ignore them?

That would be a powerful incentive for OP's to find other sources, and in fact, help other sources thrive.

I do screenshot them when it's the only source I can find.

Thanks for the fantastic work on the site.

[CousinIT]

29. I like this as well. Sharing from X

should be discouraged. Too harsh? I dont know ... we're talking about linking to a known fascist source.

[love_katz]

31. Thank you, thank you, thank you;

[CousinIT]

37. THANK YOU!

[seta1950]

41. Yes

Agreed

[grandpamike1]

42. X

[karin_sj]

44. Yes!

This absolutely needs to be done

[Buddyzbuddy]

45. Screw with Leon

Whatever negativity we can muster for Leon, works for me. So, yes please.
