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

By percent I bet the amount of people using nitter is miniscule, meaning Twitter spent a lot of time making sure a small amount of people can’t access the tweets.

There was probably a large number of bots using the same method that nitter uses to scrape data.
