Twitter preventing viewing without logging in

Twitter is now preventing viewing any handle/username timeline without first logging into Twitter.

I got bumped out for close to 4.5 hours before this submission.




Try nitter.net:

"Nitter is a free and open source alternative Twitter front-end focused on privacy and performance. The source is available on GitHub at https://github.com/zedeus/nitter"

No need to sign-in to view Twitter.

Instances: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances


So, how does it work without an API?



They use the Twitter internal GraphQL endpoints.


It’s only going to get worse. Time to leave.
