X/Twitter Links No Longer Allowed on r/Bengals

Notice: X/Twitter Links No Longer Allowed on r/Bengals

Effective immediately, links to X/Twitter will no longer be permitted on r/Bengals.

There has been considerable discussion recently regarding the platform and the actions of its owner. However, this decision is also rooted in long-standing issues with the platform that have impacted our subreddit.

Some of the challenges include:

  • The inability to edit tweets, meaning updates or related news require separate threads.
  • Information being lost when content is deleted.
  • The inability for users without X/Twitter accounts to view content.

While these issues have long been acknowledged as inconvenient yet necessary, recent developments, along with the platform’s declining usability and the shift of news sources to other platforms, have made this decision the best path forward.

To help everyone stay connected with Bengals-related news, here’s a helpful link to a list of Bengals-related accounts on BlueSky: Cincinnati Bengals on BlueSky.

As always, we’ll continue to evaluate our policies to ensure the best experience for our community.

Thank you for understanding, and as always, Who Dey!
