Tools like snappify.io and poet.so have the disadvantage of producing inaccessible content; you have to add alt attributes yourself, which can be really tedious for larger code examples.
It's a good thing not to directly access Twitter in your posts for privacy reasons, but make sure people can use copy&paste.
The code snippet is kind of disadvantage for large code for sure.
But when we want to write a tutorial blog/article we can break the code and create a few lines of code snippet.
So that we can create step by step tutorial. And even code snippet using snappify and other platforms/tools that does the same makes the article look more neat that was my main concern I added snappify into this list.
And yes about twitter thread snip even it has disadvantage it's makes inaccessible but let's assume one scenerio where you want to add useful twitter thread which is related to your article topic. You have 2 choices

When we add tweet snip in article, readers experience is much better than the embedded tweet links cause we let them read article easily without ruining reading experience by toggling between twitter and Devto or other blogging platforms.
