thank you

I got banned from Twitter ages ago and never bothered to create another account. I used to not have trouble reading threads like this but among other things with "X" the UI has become absolutely impossible to use lately. I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to read the rest of this thread on Twitter itself but, if I am, how to do it is not at all obvious.

FYI all you need to do (for now) is plain substitute the twitter.com with nitter.net. The links in comments are convenient, but it's trivial to DIY when faced with some twitter thread you want to read without a login.

you can make a firefox bookmark with location set to:

    javascript: (location.hostname="nitter.net")

Since Xitter decided to play the 'log in to read this' game, Nitter Redirect extension has saved me a lot of annoyance

Thanks, works on android

If you install the LibRedirect plugin, your browser will automatically rewrite twitter links to nitter.net, which is much more convenient.
