Everyone can see your blog. People who don't have a Twitter account will either get an error message, get redirected to your profile, or will get the first post only, on Twitter, depending on phase of moon. Unless you're catering exclusively to an audience of Twitter users it's a pretty horrendous user experience.
I agree. But on X, at least people will see and read your post. On your blog, you have to wait for it to show up on Google, or you have to find a way to drive traffic before anyone see it. I have a few posts on my blog that received 0 visits after months of being online.
