The problem is that a lot of companies are objectively making the user experience worse with the changes that they make. I don't know about how others respond to this. I'm not a Twitter user. When I can't easily access something linked on Twitter (or Facebook, or Instagram, or whatever) I just say "Oh well" and c-w.

From the capitalist perspective I guess it's just a decision based on lost revenue from eyeballs like mine going elsewhere vs. revenue/data gained by users who make an account that wouldn't otherwise.
