Show HN: PaperDelivery – fetch articles from your Twitter feed

I propose that HN "charge" users 10 reputation points for a submission that links to twitter, and 1 rep point for linking to twitter in a comment.

This is not a punishment. Your comment doesn't get any grayer or dead-er. It's an incentive to deep link when possible.

If you can find a better link, we'd appreciate that. If you can't, then pay the fee, or quote the tweet. Oftentimes the important part of the linked tweet is just some other link; please post that directly.

The policy should be rescinded if twitter ever resurrects their non-javascript frontend (and pigs fly, etc).

Should be the same for any site that nags users (i.e. harasses) with lock-in features or censors. If HN was truly the most virtuous social media we would hurry up and get to the final E of embrace extend extinguish to the EEEers.
