I find it rather sad that the original posts have been posted on an open site, where anyone can read them, while the HN post points to an increasingly dubious site that doesn't even show the post unless you create an account and log in.
I thought the spirit of the open web would be more important to this community.

While I also have my reservation against Elon and his activities, I can read these posts on my browser without any account.
everyone knows how to type ‘cancel’ https://xcancel.com/ValerioCapraro/status/209779183626997799...
The poster would have known that too then!
xcancel, nitter and all the other similar platform were disabled until a couple of days or so ago. Why use them instead of the original on mastodon?
I'm sad this was just screenshots without a link. I shouldn't have had to find the original posts by hand.
