Nitter: Update Oct 10th seeking funding and legal help

I don’t think nitter can run legally. It would be like having a proxy for nytimes or cnn. I think its (or systems like it) only possible future is to acknowledge it doesn’t have a legal future.

I don't quite understand the need for nitter. I don't use X/Twitter due to what it accesses, not due to the front end.

> seeking funding

What’s the purpose of Nitter?

Elevator pitch if you will?

And where can one read a bio of the creator(s)?

Nitter is/was a free, open-source alternative front-end for X (formerly Twitter) that lets users view public posts without an account, ads, or tracking scripts.

Well, it was good while it lasted.

Surely Nitter is open source and has 1.4K forks alread. So it should be easy to ramp that up to several thousand more, which can make it harder to stop? or am i being naive?
