Nitter(X/Twitter frontend) project received cease and desist

cross-posted from: https://piefed.world/c/tech/p/1358432/nitter-project-received-cease-and-desist

Cease and desist

On 24 August 2026 cease and desist letters have been sent by X Corp. demanding a permanent takedown of Nitter instances and the project's repository.

nitter.net is offline and development has stopped for the time being. I'm seeking legal advice and won't be commenting further on the specifics for now.

Thank you to everyone who used, hosted, packaged, donated and contributed to Nitter over the past seven years.
