There is an extension that redirects all twitter links to nitter:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nitter-redirect/mo...
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nitter-redire...
https://github.com/SimonBrazell/nitter-redirect
- Twitter now requires users to login to view anything on the site

Twitter is now recommending Russian War Criminals accounts to users after restricting them last year, tests suggest
For anyone who would further like to reduce the data they're feeding twitter + traffic, I would recommend you install the "Nitter" addon that redirect twitter pages to open-source self-hostable front-end. https://github.com/SimonBrazell/nitter-redirect

The ever-increasing walled-gardeness of Twitter
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." -MLK
Overall, I'd like to see something other than pure convenience factor in. I think there's a moral (ethos) & logical (logos) cause here, working against the single garment of identity being turned into a corporate run straight-jacket of dominion, and accepting some responsibility, some charge for helping push us towards better, to positively affecting each other, is to me what life is about.
Personally, on extensions versus logins, this doesn't seem like a big ask. Getting a private, non-aggressive, non dark-pattern website is a huge upgrade, for very little cost. Having links I can share easily is a huge upgrade versus linking people to partial fragments & concealed login-walls.
The description for this extension says it only affects Twitter. This is fairly easy to validate in devtools, or if you trust it you can go read the open source, which also proves this claim to be true. This extension will not slow down any other site. This would be great information for the extension stores to make known! Personally I hadn't heard the complaint about extensions slowing things down before. That's a shame. It'd be great for the browser to make more information visible to end-users about the performance impact of extensions. Anyhow, I was able to find this core evidence in less time than it takes a gmail tab to open: https://github.com/SimonBrazell/nitter-redirect/blob/5b997ea...
