This is one thing that has bothered me with recent twitter.


I just stopped clicking on Twitter links


I just installed https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-redir... to automatically fix them, and I manually s/twitter.com/nitter.*/ on non-FF browsers.


nitter.net to the rescue


But for how long ?


It's easy enough to self-host. You could always route it through a VPN/Tor/I2P if you care about anonymity.


That’s not what i meant, I meant nitter is only going to work for as long as twitter doesnt start actively putting resources to prevent nitter from scraping
