murder VS nitter

4. X

I went to https://twitter.com/ and only got the login page. You can see individual posts without an account, but most other read-only functionality is hidden behind the login wall.

It is this ublock origin custom rules

    news.ycombinator.com##tr.athing:has(a[href^="https://twitter.com"]) + tr + tr.spacer

I don’t know that the rename is going to stick. The logo is still an X in blackboard bold, but https://x.com/ links now redirect to https://twitter.com/.

Case in point.

Also, an easy work around is to take a twitter url and replace twitter.com with nitter.net to see the tweet and all replies.

the n word (you are getting twitter.com cancelled)

Don't use Youtube without going through a proxy like Invidious [1] or Newpipe

Don't use {site} Search without going through a proxy like SearxNG [2]

Don't use TwiXXer without going through a proxy like Nitter - this has gotten more difficult lately but it still works as long as you feed the daemon some registered accounts. Video does not work at the moment but that seems to be fixable.

Don't use Reddit without going through a proxy like libreddit [4]

Start noticing the pattern? Maybe it is time to start producing promotional posters:

The only thing to come between you and ADS could be a proxy / ADS. I'ts just not worth the risk

ADS / New rules for a sane net / Sane net protects you, your partner and your community

A proxy here and a filter there, ADS nowhere

The more you tighten your grip, ${site}, the more viewers will slip through your fingers

I assume this is why Nitter got slammed and is on the verge of breaking.

The creator of the project left this comment an hour ago:

Most of the time you can just replace twitter.com with nitter.net or nitter.it but when these instances are down or blocked you can use other instances listed here: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances

But as the other commenter said Libredirect is the way to go: https://libredirect.github.io/

Use a Youtube proxy like Invidious [1], problem solved and you get to subscribe to channels without telling the Beast about your interests. Add Sponsorblock (which supports Invidious) to get rid of any in-stream advertising which remains and you'll be transported back to those hallowed times of yore when men were men, women were women and advertising was something you found in newspapers. Youtube will try to make this harder just like Xitter is trying to make it harder to use proxies like Nitter [2].

njal.la restored nitter.net, and replied with their reasons: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/1150#issuecomment-18...

tbh I can totally understand why they acted this way.
