Nitter Lives: Project Continues Despite X Corp. Cease and Desist

Nitter is unarchived and will continue

After receiving cease and desist letters from X Corp. in August 2026, the Nitter project has announced it will continue following legal advice. The commit updates the README to reflect this decision and adds a note about legal inquiries. Nitter remains a free, open-source, privacy-focused alternative Twitter front-end, with features like no JavaScript, no ads, and backend-only requests to prevent tracking.

Following legal advice, the Nitter project will continue.
