Esmailelbob is also a reactionary.
Unfortunately every other instance on that list is either down all the time or most of the time.

Esmailelbob is facist too.
The various threadreaderapps seem to work okay but unlike Nitter they don't show the replies.
Yeah, I saw someone share a link to nitter.poast.org the other day and my immediate thought was "...What, 'Poast' as in the fashy SNS where a bunch of members were doxxed?"
status.d420.de
I stopping using that and trusting that site about a month ago. As far I know - I tried all the instances repeatedly - nitter.poast.org was and is the only working instance.
nitter.privacydev.net was very healthy or fully healthy when I checked the status but it I entirely gave up on it ~2 months ago. For weeks on end it never worked.

I moved on to Bluesky.
Oh snap, I didn't know. I shared a link or two from there when people were asking for non Twitter links because I thought it was literally the only instance left.
Oops, I blindly copied a Poast Nitter link recently and had no idea--thanks for the PSA!
I thought twitter put the kibosh on nitter instances. How are there still a few left anyways?
Twitter prevented the creation of guest instances, which was how nitter was working. Nitter could still be used by routing the traffic through actual accounts but no one wanted to deal with the hassle of that, especially when the boer could just shut it down.
This is good to know, thank you for sharing
anyone out there willing to help me figure out what special sauce the remaining instances are using? maybe we could build our own instance.
I'm guessing based on prior research that they are farming genuine account tokens somehow but more details would help
A Reddit link was detected in your post. Here are links to the same location on alternative frontends that protect your privacy.
Are there any other that work? Privacydev is one that works but barely. I don't know any other.
What stops anyone from putting up a view tumbling nitter instance that automates history deletion and uses the history deleted users id as one in a list of ids it uses to access the tweets?
E: with user consent, of course. People should know they’re exchanging history deletion for use of their account in an ad-view tumbling data poisoning operation.
