pour one out.
Yet another victim of the data rush.
How long until we’ll search for information and get nothing besides SEO-optimized AI-geneted sites, instead of genuine human opinions?
Looks like https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/919#issuecomment-1615136091 is the reason. Smells like bullshit. There’s no way this is correct.
Kinda sucks. Been using it to check a few tweets here and there without an account.
This is irritating. I use Nitter once a week to check if someone’s still alive. If I see them posting crap I know they’re still breathing.
Best to move on. Don’t let them live rent free. Anger consumes you and barely touches them.
I’ve run into this yesterday, and was puzzled not to be able to find any news about the change back then! It really does suck, and I wonder about the timing coinciding with the shutdown of Reddit APIs; yet another site full of useful content taking its toys and going home. 😑
I’m cynical and assume Twitter absolutely did it on Reddit day on purpose
The cynical in me tells me this was Musks plan all along and had been coaxing Spez to get him to implode Reddit to take off heat from this move.
