Nitter is working again
For those not aware nitter is an opensource twitter frontend which has no ads or javascript.
Now it also bypasses the rate limits and other restrictions.

Man, that's another win for the free and libre clones!
No account requirement and it works way faster and more cleanly than official Twitter too, for me.
Let's hope they don't throw a fit like Google is doing.
oh fr?! that’s great news! surprising too. no idea how they managed it, but i sure am glad they did!
From what I have heard, Twitter quietly went back on its decision to force you to make an account if you want to view a tweet.
I stopped checking twitter when nitter stopped working, great that is back
Can someone who's less stupid than me at programming explain this? From my understanding "endpoints" is a term related to APIs but... nitter just scrapes the site, doesn't use the twitter API in any way
EDIT: nvm, the readme says they do use an "unofficial twitter api" of some sort
