Comment on Resignation of OTW Directors

    It appears that the Twitter feed on the front page goes to @OTW_status, which is currently an empty account. I assume the move to Cloudflare has something to do with this? I believe it went to @AO3_status prior to the move.

      Pretty sure that's Twitter's doing when they broke embeds for everyone a few weeks ago. Only some embeds work now

        No, it's the incorrect account. It links to this account: https://twitter.com/otw_status

        Prior to that it linked to https://twitter.com/ao3_status. I'm assuming it was an oversight that hasn't been fixed or noticed yet, considering the recent site upheaval.

          Nope. Its been @otw_status since at least 5/5/2023. I had asked a question about it to support then and this was the response I got:

          Hi again, Eli0t:

          We do control the @otw_status account - it's used to generate the "Tweets" link and module on the AO3's front page. We have to use a separate account to group together all the OTW Twitter accounts due to some design choices made by Twitter (prior to Musk's reign).

          Best,
          CJ

          The feed only stopped working when Mr. Musk made some more dumbass changes a few weeks ago.
