Never seen xcancel before, love that!

Didn't work for me, just kept reloading a page verifying my browser.

You can replace xcancel.com by nitter.net, it worked for me.

Like this: https://nitter.net/MaximeRivest/status/2073544461473169432

Both are running the same software but I guess the protection of the sites work differently.

The software it runs is called Nitter. You can also run it on your own server to reduce load on the popular servers and make it harder for Elon to block all copies of Nitter.

(Note the T and G keys are next to each other on QWERTY keyboards - beware typos)

There are browser extensions (eg. Redirect for Firefox) that will automatically replace x.com with xcancel.com.

You want to be using LibRedirect for this. It provides a list of public alternative frontends for a lot of sites (twitter, imgur, reddit, etc.)
reply
You're right, it is called LibRedirect.

Que? Did you reply to the wrong thing? Or are you accusing me of being a bot?

Sorry, just really having difficulty working out how your response is linked to my message

Guy made an account just to post that gem.

Only… Rust bots use Xcancel. Maybe GP only posts about Rust bots, and every now and then they’re right.

Why not just show the real link to ?
reply
Because the real link now won't even let you watch a video without logging in.

Tested with incognito, works fine without login using the link

Did you try hitting play?

Same reason xcancel exists at all.

Valid point, done

Personally I wouldn't want to promote X.
