Nitter had been indeed generally Tor-friendly until around September, 2023. After that, even the official instance nitter.net started blocking Tor from time to time (currently not blocking), and there are now relatively few working instances for Tor users.

This is something most Tor users know through daily experiences. The problem seems to be, your link was a "meta link" redirected to a random Nitter instance, right? If so, that’s the problem; not every instance is Tor-friendly. Another problem is, your knowledge about this privacy front end is not up-to-date.

The current situation is so obvious for actual users that if you were actually using Tor/Tails every day, you would have never done what you did. But it’s okay. Thanks for a $20 donation to Tails, you seem to be very proud of. Well, xmr user would be more likely to send or say 0.2 XMR etc. because we tend to think in our native currency :)

"your knowledge about this privacy front end is not up-to-date" you talk about the restriction put on specific instances. It not affects the majority, this haves nothing to do about the code 😕 The donation were published to give engagement for Tails donations, some of us already donated to projects without saying it and this is off-topic regarding to the post but if you want you can PM me on SimpleXChat

I meant the situation. Your assumption that Nitter instances are generally Tor-friendly (with only a few exceptions) used to be true, but anymore. The situation has changed and as such your understanding is slightly outdated.

I use untrackme and libredirect setup with farside. Orbot on the phone and Tor for libredirect. I think I got blocked one time but ok
