Some may remember Google accusing Microsoft of doing this: https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/microsofts-bing-uses...
Why are people still using Twitter? I've always hated it, but previously it at least let guests view some of the content, but now it's just a massive "install app" banner.
Same reason people use Instagram. Network effects.
Replace x.com with xcancel.com to get around the block.
How many posts on Twitter are made by actual people anymore? More or less than half?
