- dredmorbius 1mo agoI don't know what your definition of "fine" is, but Nitter and XCancel received C&Ds three days ago: <https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/1442 https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/1442> HN: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49437283 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49437283> From HN's PoV, the issue is that there aren't well-known workarounds which can be used for X.com / Twitter.com submissions. HN's principle concern is more that any discussion on such posts will largely revolve around the regwall / paywall, which doesn't advance HN's own prime directive: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27901918 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27901918>
