Good post. Thanks for the laugh...
Just an fyi about nitter.poast.net:
Using nitter.poast.net is not much different than just using twitter. It tracks you just as much as twitter does. It is not a "private" instance. I cannot access nitter.poast.net while my privacy protections are in place. Hasn't always been like that. It was my favorite instance for a while.
I can access the following instances with privacy in place
nitter.net nitter.privacydev.net xcancel.com (slow)
you can also add https://farside.linkto the beginning of any twitter post to be redirected to a working nitter instance.
https://farside.link/https://x.com/TheFigen_/status/1894859771368321268?
more info about farside here(github.com). Works with other sites besides twitter too.
Thanks for this info. I'll definitely include them in my posts going forward.
