I'm happy to announce nitter.net has finally returned. Instability is expected for a while until scraping prevention is improved, etc.
Running an instance is now both difficult and expensive, but it's possible. If anybody is interested please feel free to message me on Matrix.
I'll be updating the guest_accounts PR soon and merge it to master, stay tuned.
I know the enshittification is inevitable, but one of the best things about BlueSky getting prominence is that they actually allow you to view everything without logging in.

I think the URL should be this:
https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/983#issuecomment-262...
Hacker News does not put hash in the URL.
Glad it's back, though it's a sad state of affairs that it requires so much effort to achieve basic readability comforts on the social web...

except pictures marked as adult
Xcancel.com works great
Yes, I used xcancel.com after it started appearing online. It's good, maybe it's because of it that Nitter came back.
Yeah it kept working better than pretty much any other instances throughout but glad there should be more coming soon.
Is https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/983#issuecomment-262... intended?
