   Twitter has left the web. You can't link there anymore and expect people to see anything. It's part of the dark web now. Alternative frontends aren't getting any data either.

     Just like an intranet that just has a public-facing login page.

     @clacke @gemlog Not to cheer for Meta but it sure makes a strong contrast that their offering has public web access (and link previews and whatnot) on day one while both Elon's Twitter and Jack's replacement Twitter currently don't. That alone makes me think Threads is indeed poised to replace Twitter in mainstream usage.

     @clacke I hope this is the last finger with which Twitter is hanging from the cliff edge.

     @otso Äh, de intressanta har till slut flyttat till Fedi nästan allihop.

     Jag stör mig mest när någon någonstans på webben delar en skärmdump av något gammalt twitterinlägg och jag försöker hitta och länka till det.

     ok. det är så för dig.

     relevant information för mig finner jag på Twitter, på Fediverse är det mest snack om Mastodon och alla upprepar samma mantran om Elon Musk. Det blir mycket Ekokammare.

     jag har det här Mastodon-kontot för att följa Twitter, det funkade inte på Pleroma, och bra så, nu kan jag jämföra Fedi med Fedi+Twitter när det är två separata system.

     jag har aldrig haft konton på Twitter eller Facebook.

     @realcaseyrollins I haven't heard the definitions for years, but I thought the deep web is the anonymous access but unindexed web and the dark web is the authorization required web?

     @clacke My current cybersecurity course reverses those definitions. Deep web = authorization required such as intranets; dark web = special tools, software, techniques required, such as Tor or I2P.

     @lnxw48a1 Not really reverses, more like shifts them.

     I know how people feel about "dark web" now, but from how I remember it, it was like this:

     Originally "deep web" was similar to "deep links", referring to things that are not on the front page and in the case of the deep web not indexed.

     The dark web was not out in the light, not visible, so intranet portals and other things that require authorization. Tor and stuff wasn't really prominent in the discourse at this point, but would have been included in stuff not ordinarily reachable.

     Later the connotation of dark as something sinister narrowed the dark web to scary overlay networks where places like Silk Road exist. This left a gap for what to call the walled-off web, so the deep web term shifted to cover this gap. I would say the transition happened over time about 2010–2015, but it also differs depending on whether you look at popular media, or web and security professionals, where popular media would have shifted first.

     @clacke Nah

     Clear web: no authentication needed for access

     Deep web: authentication needed for access

     Dark web: literally #Tor
