Look, im happy they’re sticking it to em, but can’t we at just stop using that god forsaken site?
I don’t think the main users of these services are Twitter users as you can’t log in to Twitter using the alternative frontends, nor can you follow accounts to create a timeline afaik. They’re just for viewing tweets eg if someone has sent you a Twitter link and you want to see what it is, or for conducting open-source research on what a person has said or put out historically. At least that’s how I use them.
Governments and social services first.
Cut off one head, and two more will grow in its place.
At least these five seemed to work fine, and I ordered them in response time as pinged from Denmark, Europe. Some of the others required annoying “are you human tests”:

Other redirecting services are available.
I’ve been using a vibe-coded userscript in the meantime, which is hacky and uses Tweet Grok’s Twitter Viewer. I definitely prefer Nitter though.
I love the name chosen for nitter.xitter.cc - every part of the domain name contributes to the full description of its purpose.
I made my own at https://stopusingx.com/ but I am having rate limit issues with the amount of use it is getting lmao. I will add more xitter accounts I guess
Very useful the guide in https://codeberg.org/mv12star/shitter/wiki/Creating-session-tokens. Now I have more accounts, hopefully it works better now ;)
OMG the amount of wasted efforts going into this shit. Just change to Mastodon already
Putting a different veneer on a nazi bar does not stop it from being a nazi bar, and doesn’t mean you’re not still patronizing it.
It does if you’re making their servers do work without consuming ads
That’s exactly why I built Twitter without an account. I don’t use X as a social network; I just wanted a quick way to open public posts people send me.
