    Just out of curiosity I tried getting the server running on my Android phone and it works! Redirect from the UntrackMe app is also working. Not sure how much of a battery drain it will be but I'll keep testing it.

    Nitter is like a window to Twitter, letting you see tweets without all the extra stuff like ads or trackers. It's similar to how BetterDiscord makes using Discord more enjoyable. However, unlike with BetterDiscord, you can't sign in to Nitter. This is because Nitter prioritizes privacy and simplicity. When you sign in, you share personal data, but Nitter avoids this to keep your information safe. So, you can view tweets through Nitter, but for things like tweeting, liking, or retweeting, you would have to go to Twitter directly.

    I use it because Twitter has a vast amount of information but I want nothing to do with the company itself. And there are handy apps like UntrackMe for Android and LibRedirect for desktop browsers that will automatically redirect to the open source alternatives.

    Nope Nitter is a custom front end for Twitter, here's the description from GitHub Really awesome project:

    A free and open source alternative Twitter front-end focused on privacy and performance. Inspired by the Invidious project.

    • No JavaScript or ads
    • All requests go through the backend, client never talks to Twitter
    • Prevents Twitter from tracking your IP or JavaScript fingerprint
    • Uses Twitter's unofficial API (no rate limits or developer account required)
    • Lightweight (for @nim_lang, 60KB vs 784KB from twitter.com)
    • RSS feeds
    • Themes
    • Mobile support (responsive design)
    • AGPLv3 licensed, no proprietary instances permitted

    Edit: I got it backwards, meaning these are what I'd consider acceptable places to charge your phone.

    Airport? Yeah but use a no-data charging cable.

    Mall? I don't see why anyone would care about that.

    Restaurant? If it's under your table or very close by.

    Parking lot? Do they have outlets?

    Stadium? Where would they be charging it at a stadium, maybe where the bathrooms and concessions are? If it's out of the way I don't think that would bother anyone.

    Your friends house? Yeah unless they're running an off-the-grid setup or something.

    The office? Yes fuck the man.

    Classroom? I assume they can charge it somewhere while in class, I've been out of there for a while though.

    Museum? Eh, feel like it can wait.

    Cinema? No.

    Jump
  • PixelPassport PixelPassport 1 year ago 100%

    Fair enough, I see your point. I don't take the SIM card out when traveling though, I use dual SIM.

    I just think having a standardized messaging service is important, something that doesn't need an app download or login. From what I can find RCS is free to use over Wi-Fi regardless of the country, and sending over data should also barely cost anything, it wouldn't be a 'per message' charge like SMS. And I can't help but wonder how much its adoption is affected by one of the world's most influential corporations deciding to not support it. I guess that's what's so frustrating to me.

    The problem is that SMS and RCS are the only standardized ones, with RCS having many of the features that services like iMessage and WhatsApp offer. Once again it's Apple that stands in the way because they like their users thinking everything non-Apple is inferior, and they refuse to support RCS.

    This is exactly why I'll never buy from Apple, the first problem in addition to the horrible contrast is intentionally caused by them so you will think other services are inferior. Either that or it's your cell provider, I've been able to text and call over Wi-Fi for years.

    Google FI also works with networks from all over the world for no extra cost so that's really nice for international travel.
