Goodbye twitter I guess. There's no longer any way to see twitter things people send you without an account

I didn't use Twitter for a decade but occasionally still read my feed until fuckface took over, and then deleted it. But the other day I wondered if someone I knew of who was palliative is still alive so I googled his Twitter, and for some reason they had mercy and let me see he is indeed still living, albeit really incapacitated. So thanks for not being shitty for one second Twitter, and now I hope you die off as a platform and are replaced by the fediverse.

What a poor name for a social media platform.

I am certain much of the Nitter use is to access 18+ stuff, and if the artists want to keep their incomes protected, they'll go to Fanbox or Fansly when their users can't use Nitter for easy wankbait.

I wish people would just abandon X. Nitter was just extending the inevitable. They don't want any of us, only fascists. Let them have their own place and leave the rest of us out of it. Better for law enforcement if all the wannabe terrorists are all in one place anyway.

Plus if it goes bankrupt he won't be in control of it from what I gather. People seem way too addicted to it to leave though.

With Tesla’s stock price dropping 12% the person who might be forced to give up Twitter is Musk. His purchase was secured with Tesla stock.

Man, I mixed Nitter and Ninite and was in absolute horror

It's a website that lets you select many apps you use in a daly basis and makes a single installer for them all. Very useful if you're always formatting your pc
