- renewiltord 2y agoThis is the worst Twitter proxy I've ever seen. It's got one of those idiotic "wait x seconds to view this page" and then a "reload the page". It's like a spam interstitial you get when you're trying to view illegal streams. I can't believe anyone not affiliated with it would post it. Awful tool.
- iudqnolq 2y agoEvery other one is dead. I'm guessing wildly here but maybe there's a reason they need to limit visitors.

- colecut 2y agoI never heard of this proxy before this post. the interstitial only seemed to appear on first load, and didn't take very many seconds.. the interface is clean and allows me to see the entire thread without being logged in, unlike x.. I had to log out of X to test this, but I can see the utility, and am not understanding the hate.
- max-privatevoid 2y agoI wonder who's to blame for that.
- layer8 2y agoWithout that it probably wouldn’t be operating anymore.
- nyx 2y agoMy understanding is that Nitter instances like this one, now that guest accounts don't exist anymore, depend on a pool of manually-created Twitter accounts. If the use case is people infrequently viewing the occasional tweet or thread, it's relatively easy to keep the pool of accounts healthy. If the Nitter instance is abused by scrapers or bots, its accounts will quickly be banned by Twitter itself, and the instance dies. So it's important to have anti-botting protections. I've found that this instance works perfectly once you're past the bot wall. I'm not affiliated with it, but I use it daily and post it instead of x.com every single time I share a tweet.
- rererereferred 2y agoAnd still a better experience than going to xitter directly. I, for one, appreciate the link.
- GaggiX 2y agoAt least you don't need to create an account to see the thread.
