I've noticed that user ransomnote ( https://freerepublic.com/tag/by:ransomnote/index?tab=comments;brevity=full;options=no-change ) publishes numerous X posts every day.
I work with AI every day, and it feels like maybe he's just set up an AI agent/bot to pull from X and share on FR throughout the day. Kinda weird.
I asked him about it in a comment, and he didn't reply.
I don't want to be the blog police. But I was curious if FReepers are OK that an increasing number of FR posts are simply shared from X. Or if we'd prefer that news articles from online publications are shared instead.
I've been here a while, so I figured I earned the right to ask the question.

Yes you do. You don't like X. That's why you created this post.
"But I was curious if FReepers are OK that an increasing number of FR posts are simply shared from X."
X is immediate and raw news, opinions, and comments by individuals. It's not filtered by media groups. It's not media-approved content.
I have no problem with X being a source or being posted. It's the way breaking news is now shared.
I KNEW it!
.
for those who do not visit X, or truth social, or any other sites, i appreciate ransomnote and her ability to track down informative articles.
Never fails.

I’m glad I retired when we wrote our own code.
You never know, I have been very wrong before.
Perhaps it will turn out the opposite, I can see a future where that happens.
“Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die”
There is a depressing dearth of new articles on this forum ….very slow
No more hijinx or johnhuang2 posting relevant stuff all day
It’s pitiful
Half of pertinent news never sees the light of day here and you’re whining because you don’t like that he sources X or twitter
Please
If I had the time I could post 30-40 issues a day here that just nobody picks up and frequently even breaking stuff has a long lag time
Nothing like the old days
What we do get plenty of is dispensationalist and Catholic chauvinism and some Protestant attacks on Catholics
All very tiresome and over and over by the same folks
If it weren’t that we’re all an old captured membership mostly
It’d be over here
Unfortunately
Ransomnote post away partner
Be the Mario Nawfal of free republic lol
Amen
You beat me to it
Stagnant is right
X often has plenty of links to “serious news articles”lol
Whatever high brows call it now
Most folks here I promise stay informed via podcasts as much as anything
Is it low brow to link YouTube too?
Boy I do wish musk would do for Google YouTube or replacing it what he did for twitter
His opening twitter cannot be over appreciated
Which is why the left still howls over it
They get it
