I previously made a thread here about alternative front-ends for Android and Squawker was among the ones I listed. It is an open-source Twitter front-end for Android, but sadly it stopped working that day because of the usual Elon changes to the website.
Today it just got an update on F-Droid and it works again!
Why would anybody still use X?
There's content you just won't find on Mastodon. Stock market squawk for instance is mostly on Twitter.
I don't use either, but aren't there Twitter to Mastodon bridges that will sync posts. Surely if Nitter can get around the API restrictions, the bridges can too.
Anyone who just wants content, never mind the ethical outcomes of continued presence in a billionaires plaything to amplify rightwing voices
I can understand big content creators who built up a big following, but other than them, I don't have a single clue
Nice to see it back up (for now).
I've been very slowly finding different places to get what I use Twitter for. But as you noted in other comments, there are some things I haven't been able to move yet.
My Twitter feed is mainly comic book art posts now, so nothing earth shattering to lose. But it was it was nice to just do that scroll again. This is the only way I'll interact on Twitter now, so if this goes, I'm out too.
Twitter( or whatever they want to call it now or in 2 months) needs to die. There are better options for users and content creators then praying every day that the billionaire doesn't get another idea.
Just attempted to use it and got an error?
Screenshot?
It works on my end, my feed at this very moment:
This should make following the trans activist I follow a bit easier. Just glad I don't need to use X directly
