Need to access something on Twitter? Don't want to wade through Elon-Musk-ville? Then boy, have I got a solution for you. All these below are basically using the Nitter software and running their own instance of it. Now, I know some of you already know about these and that's fine, but sometimes, one instance will be bogged down or even just not be reachable, so it's good to have a nice list of backup instances you can use.

Note that these are only for browsing. You can't login and post with them, nor should you do so even if you could because you are basically using somebody else's computer to browse Twitter. Also, when searching for users, be sure to include the @ symbol before the username or else the search is very probably not going to be helpful.

https://nitter.poast.org/ (Often slow. Sometimes unresponsive. Still though, try this first to avoid bogging down the other backup servers unnecessarily.)

Vxtwitter doesn't work like the others, you can't use it like you can nitter.
It only works on Discord. When you post a twitter link on Discord, but replace "x.com" with "vxtwitter.com", it enables better embedding in Discord.

Specifically, it allows you to embed and view videos within discord.
