I read it more as someone just venting annoyance about the article relying on twitter embeds in the first place – something that’s not unreasonable to block – more than looking for a solution.
I don’t get it, regular people post on Twitter and traditional media are nice enough to credit them but somehow that becomes some kind of invasion to be stopped in your browser. Yeah, block those share / like buttons but if you just block whole social media platforms outright on purpose then why complain that they don’t work - you chose that yourself.
I’m not entirely sure since it wasn’t my comment, but personally I wouldn’t find it unreasonable to dislike a platform solely based on who owns it, and want to discourage its use. That’s especially true for someone in the fediverse, as I think most of us ended up here due to the continual enshitification of reddit.
