Like piracy, shut one down & two more pop up. The names may change, but the idea of virtually giving Elon the finger will not.

Problem is that nitter itself was also hit. Developing it will get a lot more harder. And the original developer(s) will stay away from developing it further.

The audacity of that nazi of accusing anyone else of scraping.
It was a good solution for those of us that wanted minimum interaction after deleting an account.

Xcancel was really handy for having all images on a multi-image tweet show up instead of having them partially cropped out in screenshots

Fixvx.com instead of x.com for embed works.

Tried it with a random tweet but it redirects me to https://fivx.com/lander

Fixvx is misspelled here.

Host your own if you’re feeling ballsy enough to test Twitter’s patience, source is still available.

Host our own, but still the main problem is that it needs to register an account on xitter 😕
Plus, unmaintained means if nitter changes something in the HTML, it stops working

It was just a question of time.

Hopefully I never see content from Xitter again.
