Cbolt, I did not say *your* practices were *objectionable*.

Let’s see if I can parse this:

I have noticed that Twitter and YT links will show tweets/videos suggestions on the right-hand side that indicate something or other about the original poster or the account linked.

Obviously, in the case of the Twitter link, I was mistaken.

I have no idea what *top tier* indicates in terms of Twitter.

I linked to the @realDonaldTrump account on Inauguration Day.

I have noticed, since then, that links vary as to what else is visible.

The only reason I commented and posted the alternative link was the assumption that others might find, as do I, the mean tweets objectionable.

Nothing personal.

No need to not post. I can certainly simply use the link I prefer.

Again: no need to accommodate anything or anyone. Options are just available choices.

My apologies if whatever I did was in any way inappropriate. I purposely limit my social media exposure due to time, interest and a desire to curate my own input as a personal preference.

YMMV

-- I did not say *your* practices were *objectionable*. --

That's the natural take of this ...

Twitter users may be used to and fine with seeing the deluge of prog garbage. I'm not ...

As you correctly point out, the link to a discrete tweet includes the following twitter comments, which for Trump tweets, are ALWAYS prog garbage.

-- I have no idea what *top tier* indicates in terms of Twitter. --

"Top tier" was my term, and I mean for that to refer to a twitter page that shows the tweets and re-tweets of a given tweeter. Contrasted with the link I provided, which ws to a single tweet and replies or reactions to that tweet.

-- Nothing personal. --

I emphatically did NOT take it as such, ever. Not for one second. Your preference is a reasonable one.

-- My apologies if whatever I did was in any way inappropriate. --

No apology needed. Expressing preferences is totally fine, and your expression and help with an alternative link was clearly offered in good faith with honorable motive.
