Goodbye twitter I guess. There’s no longer any way to see twitter things people send you without an account

At this point I’m impressed by how much effort Twitter devs must’ve have put into making the site shittier and less accessible.
Wait, they still have devs? I thought they fired all of them already…
Every Twitter announcement be like:

Thank God. Maybe news articles will stop embedding tweets in articles.
Privacy badger hides tweets in articles completely. I love it.
By percent I bet the amount of people using nitter is miniscule, meaning Twitter spent a lot of time making sure a small amount of people can’t access the tweets.
There was probably a large number of bots using the same method that nitter uses to scrape data.
It was how I scraped.
I wish less people used Twitter. Like my city exclusively communicates through Twitter
They’re not also locked into Facebook? It seems like far too many public services communicate through these non-public platforms (i.e. often more easily viewed or sometimes only viewable with an account).
To be fair, before all this nonsense, this is what made Twitter unique and important. Twitter was the one way through social media “the average Joe” could be heard on the public stage. No normal person is getting time on the news.
Because of its short format the message had to be simple and concise, which made it special in the social media space. Someone saying something about a current event and then the “semi-democratization” process of being shared and liked or whatever the mechanism was (never was a user), and that message then making it into the news media, was a good thing. It actually was an opportunity for normal people to have a voice. And not just for Americans but for people in other countries who have even less of a voice.
Which is why the current events are so ironic, all of that being ruined, in the name of the billionaire morons claim of “free speech platform.” He couldn’t even see the perspective I’m coming from because he has a path to the public stage.
https://nitter.d420.de is the old instance uptime & health checks site. https://status.d420.de/ is the new one.

Man, I mixed Nitter and Ninite and was in absolute horror
Whats Ninite?
It’s a website that lets you select many apps you use in a daly basis and makes a single installer for them all. Very useful if you’re always formatting your pc
Windows crap that Linux distros have had for literally decades.
Ouch, I cut myself on your edge 😢
Linux doesn’t have Edge.
That’s just gross. I wonder how many installs it actually has.
all the xbox kids are mad that their spyware OS is falling behind the latest decade+ in modern computing.
How are those docker containers in windows again? A fucking tragedy?
it still could be made working with using real logins for scraping which can be a bit illegal but if you do it on your personal instance it would be more than enough. I’m not sure, maybe nitter already supports this instead of guest tokens?
There’s nothing illegal about breaking Twitter terms of service. You might get banned, but that’s it.
