Agreed, but Nitter makes it better. It’s probably one of the strongest of the alternative frontends. There are 83 documented, public, clearnet instances.

>> document.querySelector("table:nth-of-type(2)").querySelectorAll("tr").length - 1
<- 83

I forgot I had htmlq installed.

$ curl https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances | htmlq 'table:nth-of-type(2) > tbody > tr' | grep '^<tr>$' | wc -l
83

The issue for me though, is their use of this “Unofficial API” – I don’t know how they get around the rate limits 😆 – Otherwise I’d still be able to easily support Twitter -> Twtxt feed aggregation 😢
