So I was thinking it would be kind of nice if there was a way to write a url like

https://nitter.net(c/o 185.246.188.57)/something/other

I guess links would still be broken though. Maybe a browser feature for a hosts file?

That's basically what a HTTP client does. It connects to the server (, does some TLS stuff) and sends a request like

  GET / HTTP/2
  Host: nitter.net
  […other headers]

This would just need to be exposed in a browser.
