Out of interest, I opened up my long-unviewed @realDonaldTrump tab, and saw the latest tweets appear to be 8/Jan/2001, still, at least just prior to my saying this... Maybe I needed to refresh it, but as the last 'glance' before that had the Banned message...
Except that Twitter has also changed, in the last 22 months. It seems to have a time-delayed "splash across the page" to get me to log in (and create an account, if necessary, which it would be), so that I effectively can't just scroll through as an unregistered user. There's no close-the-popover hotspot obvious (could be white-on-white, but there didn't seem to be a hotspot in the usual corner-positions) and it effectively prevents my old practice of read-only twitter-binging (which probably wasn't healthy anyway), diving into things of interest.
Might be a Mobile Site peculiarity (until I force the browser to work in desktop-site mode) or one which I can neuter by other fancy browser functionality, but the banner suggesting I use the App (installed, but never used) was already there in its only slightly annnoying (and ignorable, not needing any particular fuss). And not sure if this splashover is Musk's deliberate doing, even, if he's already been firing anybody who might be competent enough to effectively accountwall the site as part of some further destructive and counterproductive strategy.
