I'm not talking about scraping, I'm talking about manual usage.

You cannot. Twitter's site is plagued by redirect loops. If you work around those, these days /search just redirs to the login page. You can view single tweets, but there won't be any replies. (I have no idea if the site formerly known as Twitter is still rate-limiting views, or if they canned that.)

It is unusable if you're not actively logged in, and some of us have no desire to give away a phone number just to see AWS's true status.

Oh. I use Twitter at least every waking hour and haven't seen that.
