Twitter, Wikipedia, etc. recently disabled SSL 3.0 http://blog.fastmail.com/2014/10/15/...vulnerability/ which old kindles used to access them. Amazon apparently fixed it for Kindle Keyboard in the latest software update v3.4.1., but their tech support told me that they are unlikely to do it for Kindle DXG that I have. Is a there a user made hack that restores access to those sites?
We have blue button at the top left of the index page that fits **ANY** situation.
It is labeled "New Thread".

I think the only thing that v3.4.1 did was install a current set of trusted web certificates.
I.E: That would not change what TLS protocol was nogoiated by the client.

You do not mention what browser you are using on the DX.
But if your using the Amazon provided one, you should consider using a different browser.
(After updating the trusted certificate set yourself - that may be the only thing you need to change.)

We have had alternate browsers posted here, I do not know if any of them work (or are supposed to work) on the DX/DXG.
You would have to do some search/research here to learn about what devices the various alternative browsers support.
