nitter.net is currently replaced with a message about the C&D until zedeus (lead dev) gets legal advice on how to proceed. Xcancel.com is ok for now (or at least until an API break). EDIT: xcancel.com was also C&D-ed and is now down

I thought Nitter had been broken for some time now?

It worked last time I tried it, which was a couple weeks ago at most.

the dev quit when accounts became obligatory, then they came back a few months later and it's been going since then

For republishing... content that Elon doesn't own?

I don't see the problem.

I wonder what grounds, and if they can claim software interoperability?

There isn't one, but the lawyers will figure one out.

Both XITTER and XCancel are down.

Bummer for those who still have to use Twitter.
