It sort of looks nice but it doesn't seem to work very much. Any links I click on a twitter page do nothing but bring up a login form. Sometimes it comes up first, obscuring the content, even if I don't click any links. I'm considering putting in a redirect rule to send every twitter link here instead.
From the description I think it still requires an account, just transforms the webpage into a read-only one
Yeah, I guess so. So it's not a replacement for Nitter. I'm sure two or three people will have a use for it, difficult though it is to imagine anyone signing up for a Twitter account in 2024.
I've only used Nitter in the past to read the status of a page of someone on Twitter. Sadly lots of people and organizations are still sitting on their Twitter account :( Some open source projects still use their Twitter account as their main communication tool (VLC being a recent example) to the rest of the world. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39789300 With this Userstyle I could see the timeline of an account today, without needing a Twitter account and it being clutter free.
