Goodbye twitter I guess. There’s no longer any way to see twitter things people send you without an account
Nitter’s the only remaining way to browse Twitter comfortably. I guess this is the nail in the coffin for my Twitter browsing.
Control Panel for Twitter is pretty amazing tho
I was just using it a few days ago… ):
I just see that more and more alternative interfaces for propretary social media are dying and that’s just sad.
Not really, we have great alternatives that are becoming more and more popular. Sent with Eternity from lemmy
We should definitely bring signatures back Tryin to make a change :-\
Probably lukewarm take: Social media shouldn’t be a utility because it provides no social value or improvement of quality of life in the same way other genuine public utilities like electricity, water, sewer services, or general access to the internet, might. It’s also putting the government in a position in which it functionally would have to provide a platform for everyone equally, Neo-Nazis, climate deniers, anti-vaccers, and every other person with “insert terrible belief here” included.
Ultimately, saying social media should be a public utility is like saying casinos and strip clubs should be public utilities. Just because it’s fun to use doesn’t mean it’s good for society or come anywhere close to meeting the definition for the level of necessity typically attached to something as a public utility.
It is a really good source of unfiltered Information, in theory.
Not uncensored, even though this would then fit in the “public utility” role, but direct. For example people rating restaurants, reporting events etc, tiktok is so good for that.
It is simply media made by humans. For infos with more work instagram and Xitter are good too.
The fediverse could totally replace that, just for tiktok etc. we would need immensive server capacities. Anyone trying to register on a Peertube server knows what I am talking about.
I used to use nitter to view stuff people sent from twitter. Now I guess I won’t ever look at twitter ever again.
I have never been much of a Twitter fan but I have idea why people don’t just move away from it. What more incentives do people need? 🤷♂️
Well normies are still on it, and they keep sending me Twitter links, so need a way to view them
The dumbest people are the ones that never, ever want to change habit.
The squawker seems interesting to me. Unfortunately it’s only available on android and there are some issues probably out of their reach. But since I use it for something basic (literally seeing images of some profiles I follow), it serves me well
Squawker doesn’t work any longer either
It had this problem, but it started working again after the last update
It’s still working for me.
:(
Twitter/X is such a cesspool. The end of nitter is an occasion to completely stop using Twitter, and instead go to the fediverse, subscribe to a newspaper.

You can’t see replies, accounts, search hashtags or really anything but a singular directly linked tweet. It’s basically locked off

Sad news. I used it when I need to see something on Twitter. I hope Musk kill twitter just like this apps. On the end of the day, I guess that will be good lol
For this I have only two words: F…k Twitter. Like FB, just visit with VPN, TOR, mask, rubber gloves and disinfectant spray, best from a Cyber Café…
On Android, Squaker still currently works after the latest update. You can view tweets and profiles but not replies. The guy running it is really working overtime for us.
