How to bypass Twitter in 2023? (lemmy.world)

I avoid Twitter at any cost but sometimes I'd like to read a single tweet or check a certain account. In the past I used fritter on Android or nitter.net in the browser.

Both do not work for me anymore.

Is there a good way to access twitter without - you know - actually using twitter?

Try https://bird.makeup/

It (somehow) acts as a bridge between Twitter and ActuvityPub. No idea how it works, but it does seem to work.

It depends on what instance you are trying to access it from. I tried to use it with my account on mastodon.social but they seem to have blocked it (you can check on the about page for your instance)

mstdn.social hasn’t blocked it though.

I find it strange because these instances don’t say anything about bots like this being against the rules.

I wasn’t aware of that. Good to know!
