There was a problem hiding this comment.
I could only find Erin Drummond on LinkedIn, but LinkedId does a lot of rate limiting and I suspect it's not going to pass the link checker. It responds with status 999 to curl attempts, something that I learned about today that's possible 🤷

Currently not logged in users are only allowed to see pages for single tweets. They are not allowed to see profile pages for example. I'm not allowed to access https://twitter.com/jeg2. And scripts aren't allow to access anything.
curl -Ion a valid tweet URL always returns 403. Thus Twitter is no longer appropriate to use as sources for anything.Twitter links are also blocking #2294
All the
httpinstead ofhttpsare intentional - those are old websites that do not use SSL.
