I can't see any screenshots from the article, all require a bluesky account. At least on twitter you could see images without login before the takeover. I'm alright if a for profit websites hides "their" content behind a login wall, it's their choice, but how lazy is this "journalism" where they don't copy the images, they just link to the original tweets or whatever they called on bluesky.
That's weird. The bluesky links in the article work fine for me, and I don't have a bluesky account.
Ahh hang on, this one doesn't work but all the rest do

Ahh here we go: it's a user made setting not a bluesky one
"Sign-in Required This user has requested that their content only be shown to signed-in users. This label was applied by the author."
Why would a user choose to enable that? Would that make it less likely to be scraped by a bot?
bsky started with nine of its posts. wing shown publicly so when they flopped the switch (i think they also opened registration without invites) some people who had gotten used to their post being hidden from the rest of the net felt exposed and the devs added this settings.
while i do not think its a great setting i kinda get it. especially given that there are not (yet) private accounts so that’s the best they have
