There's also the DDOS matter; when a user who is not logged-in tries to access a tweet, #Twitter is sending itself ten replies a second for a few seconds. That tallies up with Musk saying that Twitter is seeing too many requests.
But setting aside the incompetence of creating the issue in the first place, if the problem really is about Twitter DDOS-ing itself, why hasn't the change been reverted yet? Why let the website sink instead of letting anonymous users read tweets?
do not let #zuckerberg have the #twitter cake! #joinmastodon (for good)

I just migrated here from Twitter thanks to Elon's terrible decision to limit viewing tweets.
To anyone reading this: Hello!
