Blog News: Embedded URLs in X Posts

Those of you who follow Legal History Blog on X have probably noted that clicking on links in our posts no longer work take you to the corresponding URLs.  Here's why.

X recently started charging for posts containing clickable links. The service LHB uses to convert blog posts into social media posts responded by leaving the links in X posts but making them unclickable.  We're told that followers may copy the links and paste them in a browser.  

We would be grateful if followers on X would confirm that they can get to the URLs by cutting and pasting.  Our email address is legalhistoryblog@gmail.com.  

Of course, you may always visit us at https://legalhistoryblog.blogspot.com/  where the links should still be clickable.
