"An open source project that let people view tweets without going to Twitter.com has shut down, as Elon Musk’s changes seem to have closed off all possible ways to access the Twitter network without a user account.
Nitter provided an alternative front-end to Twitter but has been struggling for months. Nitter.net, the official Nitter instance, went down a few weeks ago."
RIP Nitterbot
Man, nitter was amazing. Fuck Musk.
Nitter itself was good at what it did, but it was still TwitX behind it. So…pretty awful overall.
You won the war against nitter I won the war against you by leaving your smelly as shit website
i find it remarkable that people still use it
It wasn’t really a war. Nitter was always at twitter’s mercy
This explains why the Musk-fart sniffer spez got the idea from to shut down third party as much as possible on Reddit. Musk ought to adopt Spez as his son at this point.
Are there any self-hosted twitter front ends? Something that would still use your account credentials (or maybe shared credentials) but would cut out all of the cruft, kinda like piped for YT?
I wonder how bird.makeup does it.
squawker too stopped working
I was wondering what happened. I only had an auto-redirect to nitter for when friends would send me something. I just say that the link doesn’t work for me now. No real loss for me.
