Instead of using Twitter's official web interface or app, which contains ads or algorithmic contents that you may not like, Nitter enables you to browse Twitter content without those potential distractions. Nitter also exposes Twitter contents as RSS feeds so that you can 1) view them in an RSS reader 2) manipulate them programatically, such as crossposting to Mastodon, filtering and archiving. If this sounds interesting to you, read on. There were once public Nitter instances that you can just use. However, with some recent changes happening on Twitter's side, it's becoming increasingly hard for people to host public Nitter instances. However, regardless of the demise of public Nitter instances, it is still possible to use Nitter as long as you host your own instance and use it on a personal scale only, and this is a guide that helps you do exactly that.
