How come every 3 weeks there is a news that nitter is now dead, and then I go to the Nitter Instance Health Monitor, pick a random instance, and am still able to surf tweets?
I dont get it. Is this wishfull thinking or do people not understand that instances other than nitter.net exist?
EDIT: I gotta admit, there is a lot of red in the last days. But it is not completely gone. Yet.
There are still some active Nitter instances, but they are expected to shut down in the near future as the remaining tokens expire. Three weeks ago, Zed wrote on GitHub that “Nitter is dead.”

Well, that is sad and incontrovertible argument. I guess I should cherish it as long as I can.
Shhhh let them think it died 🤫
It did
Mostly, but I don’t want Twitter to take further measures!
Like what? What’s still alive will time out within a week or so, there’s no keeping them around.
You’ll hear about it thru the grapevine. I’m not talking about it on reddit sorry
Neither of us are on Reddit right now .
But ok, good to hear something will keep going.
