Nitter is a free and open source alternative frontend for X, formerly known as Twitter, focusing on privacy and performance. Nitter is designed to allow access to X without tracking, advertisements, or the need for an account. It only supports browsing, and cannot be used to sign in or interact with the X community. Users can view user profiles, replies, media, and individual posts alongside their comments and Quote Posts. Nitter also allows for searching by keywords, hashtags, usernames, locations, media and dates and supported the same formatting as X's native advanced search function. It also supports creating RSS feeds for X (Twitter) profiles.
