Twitter/X redirection doesn't work #917

If I click on a twitter link, I'm not redirected to Nitter anymore. My browser auto-updated the extension, so I guess this is intentional as Nitter is now completely useless without an account?

In all cases, I don't like the unexpected change. I'd have preferred the original domain to be blocked and getting some warning of sorts, not being redirected to the original without a hint why the extension failed at its job.

It's such a shame that even after leaving google play and such garbage distribution platforms behind me, disabling automatic updates its still regularly validated by various software projects issuing downgrades.
I always have to keep in mind to not update Libredirect ever again. It has happened 2 or 3 times already, but I somehow come to terms with it and updated. Not sure if that will happen once more.

Nitter is working. Here is proof:

At the moment it is rate limited, but thats normal by the past x years.
But not even. Just before sending in this comment, I reloaded the page, and now it has loaded properly:

Ok, I forked it! Very simple! I've just added removed commits... Shame you do not want it add back in.

By the way, certain forks of Nitter still work. Sadly its often rate limited, but somehow my RSS reader always manages to get hold of new posts in a reasonable amount of time, even though its only set up to sync every single day.
