I intentionally used Twitter/X video link instead of Mullvad website video link because Mullvad website is blocked in a good number of countries.

On the other hand, Twitter is one of the top 10 websites globally. Which means it's guaranteed to work in most countries.

Yeah, but it's still Twitter and backed by a fascist POS. Gross.

Also you often can't view Twitter stuff like this without having an account and being logged in. (Thus the 403 Forbidden response)

At the very least they could use an xcancel link or something.

Fucks my phone up. Don't see video, hear audio, have to kill browser.

I don't think X works as well or as widely as you may think.

Why not just use a video hosting website then? Why go out of your way to use one of the most hated websites on lemmy?
