Nitter reddit

Overview of alternative open source front-ends for popular internet platforms e. YouTube, Twitter, etc.

Warning: long somewhat related story that is basically humblebragging, but the summary is that bypassing Twitter ratelimits is not very hard. I didn't feel like playing around with Twitter's annoying certificate pinning so I just uploaded the Twitter APK to Corellium, turned on what they call the "network monitor", opened the Twitter app since it lets you use Twitter without signing in. I clicked around, searched and viewed tweets. Then I looked at the requests in the log and saw it has a similar guest token process to the website but with a few differences. Anyways, if you recreate these requests, with one IP address you can generate a few OAuth tokens with no expiry per day. These tokens are for unauthenticated users so obviously they have no write privileges but that's not what was needed here.

There were often "rate-limited" errors that hadn't completely prevented the site from being usable since the nitter people said the site would go down eventually. Are there any currently? It's over. It isn't just Twitter, it's every single website that's turned themselves into a login-walled "application". Twitter's relative openness lasted a long time. It was open by default because it is a product built in , when the idea of coralling people into walled gardens to show them ads didn't exist. Apps built later take the concept of "walled garden" as a default feature. Slack , Discord, Snapchat, Tiktok, Telegram You can't see anything unless you're logged in. But Twitter is an ad-driven platform. Most of those other ones are not. It's ALL about the exposure to eyeballs. But now that Elon chewed on some wires and killed whole colocations, they are not able to serve all that traffic that is supposed to view the ads - for all the talk about how "Twitter is still running like it used to" after being gutted like a fish. It is definitely not.

I too don't believe Elon is that dumb.

I will update this again in the future if I hear about any others. Thankfully at this point there is not much content exclusive to Twitter that is worth seeing anyway. The front-end is what you see when you look at a website. Same content, different interface. But many people host public versions too! However in my experience, because many of the alternative front-ends use significantly less javascript and background processes, the sites once loaded are significantly faster and less glitchy overall with no popups. Public examples: Nitter. Public examples: Teddit. Public examples: libreddit. Public examples: proxitok.

An open source project that let people view tweets without going to Twitter. Nitter provided an alternative front-end to Twitter but has been struggling for months. NoLog, a Czech group that ran another Nitter instance, announced its demise today. NoLog operated one of the largest Nitter instances but is a different group than the one that created Nitter itself. Twitter blocked the last known way to access their network without a user account," the NoLog update said. Users reported that many Nitter instances went down about eight months ago as Twitter now called X imposed new API restrictions.

Gives me much better performance than the highly used public instances. If you can't make a profit without spying on people then your business model sucks. Search, which is required for the multi-timeline feature, isn't implemented right now. There is still a need for public spaces. It became important for archiving as much content from those forums as possible as the forum was in the process of shutting down. Fischgericht 5 days ago root parent next [—]. I get that not all interests are as well represented, but I like it. If the content we wanted was on Mastodon, we would not be having this conversation. You can export from Fritter and import into Squawker and presumably vice versa if Fritter catches up. Retr0id 9 days ago root parent next [—]. This seems like Elon distributed free API tokens to specific 3rd party vendors? Who are they "stealing" the token from? I do not see it as a noble pursuit. If you want to be anonymous, your are SOL unfortunately. Linux requires a user account too.

Unlike Netflix, they won't be crippled by 3rd parties unlicensing content. Tumblr used to be a lot more popular, but its collapse is usually attributed to them banning NSFW content. The alternate instances may still have them. Meanwhile I'm still using Nitter. A possible name might be open-source-alternatives or something similar. It's generally the same mindless shithole it was 10 years ago, while the communities which have had steady moderation haven't changed at all. The chances of such an emergency where I am is pretty remote. Awesome, now my light personal-use scraper works again. You will always be running something as a user who has a user id.
