Maybe time to end it? Twitter is no longer a well behaved service, and its only going to get worse.

Yeah, I refrain from posting on Sh/X-itter as much as possible. The combination of Threads + Mastodon is pretty decent.
definitely agree. there are many other ways to connect to people.
X hasn't been well-behaved as long as Nitter has existed, it's crappiness is arguably the raison d'etre for Nitter.
Unofficial third-party apps, sites, etc will always be playing the cat-and-mouse game and will always be behind whatever change the first party service makes.

By default, Nitter has always been in a losing position in both maintenance and catching up in implementing the missing new features years before the Twitter acquisition.

This also isn't unique to X / Twitter.
