I will point out that one must now have an account on Twitter to view posts there. End of line.

I can still see individual posts, though not replies, threads, timelines or searches.

Though it's not clear how much of that is intentional vs just broken e.g. I get "Something went wrong. Try reloading." in several places.

I think this is the slight rollback response to when they originally locked everything until it became known that I doing so they began DDOS’ing themselves. My guess is making top level tweets public mitigated this for now.

The issue was mitigated, and making top level tweets public was intentional. The timeline remains invisible (without DDOS).
