nitter.net is, the mirrors are not.
iirc, twitter turned off all anonymous access, unless you come from a search engine, then you get a limit number of requests. So zedeus came up with an idea to make a massive pool of search engine'd api tokens and use those to keep nitter up. The mirrors would have to copy that idea, and few (0?) have atm.
- rft 3y agoThe current state is to use guest accounts [1]. If you use that branch instead of master and get a collection of accounts, you can run your own instance. For my personal use instance this is working fine with the initial set of accounts I put in. No idea how long this will work and/or when it is going to get merged, it is a moving target. I think the token workaround you mentioned is the old way that no longer works, but I am not sure. [1] https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/pull/985 https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/pull/985
