nitter VS nitter-instances

Might not be long-lived.

https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/983

Not to single out twitter because a lot of web sites simply appear as a blank page.

The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?

But if you must:

At the moment, this worked for me:

https://xcancel.com/soren_iverson/status/1801253187602788424...

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].

There was some change (not known whether intended or not) that twitter links no longer work for non-logged users. So either hope someone will reupload it somewhere, or try using one of the nitter instances https://github.com/xnaas/nitter-instances.

Yes, use a nitter instance.

Searching for twitter usernames isn't working, use the tweet search tab or type a twitter username on the end of the url.

If it says "This nitter instance has been rate limited" then choose a different one from the above list.

Nitter is still working, although searching for users seems to have stopped working you can still use the tweet search tab or manually type a twitter username on the end of the URL.

List of nitter instances:

https://github.com/xnaas/nitter-instances

They unpredictably say "This nitter instance has been rate limited", you can try a few from the above list to find one that is getting less traffic.

I just tested one and the RSS worked fine. Did you try using a different instance?
