Twitter Integration Rethinking
egekorkan opened this issue · 6 comments
Twitter now requires login to see anything at all. Thus, our twitter feed on the right is not loading. We should think of a solution.
Grrr 🤔 I don't think there are that many solutions.
- Tweak it that it still works (is this even possible?)
- Remove the feed
- ???
The console says..
[Update] There have been recent updates to Embedded Twitter Timelines and supported parameters.

There are more people complaining... let's see whether it gets resolved/changed again
Sadly the first link is about the update from a year ago, not the current issue. I have checked again https://publish.twitter.com/# and even there we do not get a feed rendered. Even if you are a verified organization (costs 1200 euros a month), the same issue persists. There should be some other way to get this done but as you can see in this Reddit thread, it is due to requiring login to see tweets.
Edit: It seems that you can view tweets without login as of two days ago but you still cannot view the timeline of a person without login. That means, we can embed a set of single tweets but not an entire timeline. See an example here. Also, see https://techcrunch.com/2023/07/05/twitter-silently-removes-login-requirement-for-viewing-tweets/
Call of 11.07: We will wait a bit to see if there is anything changing, otherwise we should either remove or try to show the latest tweet automatically.
As of now, there is still no change. The code generated at https://publish.twitter.com/?query=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FW3C_WoT&widget=Timeline still does not work
Closing for now since we have a process to check for new tweets and update the page with the latest accordingly.
