Nitter is a privacy frontend for twitter.

After the recent API changes done after the Elon takeover, we had to resort to the usage of dummy puppet accounts.

Due to this, we have limited number of requests we can take before ratelimiting, and therefore have decided to make the instance limited to donators and admins.

To enforce this, we use basicauth using username and password combination.

If you are a donator, you can reach out to us via [any of our contact methods](https://projectsegfau.lt/contact), to get access to the Nitter instance.

Once you have access, you can access the nitter instance through https://nitter.projectsegfau.lt or https://n.psf.lt (for the shortened URL).

If you don't want to enter the credentials multiple times (especially in the case of a privacy redirector like Libredirect), you can use the following URL: https://username:password@nitter.projectsegfau.lt
