It's just javascript. You can use ublock zap feature to remove the modal, this is why nitter is still working.

To much work for them to do authorization at the API level, they most likely fired all of their backend engineers already.

Can you enlighten me how this works? I would love to be able to zap that modal :)
Even if its only another resource. I tried what i could find online but it keeps pushing me to the /i/flow/login

Yeah. It looks like I was mistaken and was in some sort of a/b test. The new version now redirect you to a login page, there is no modal anymore :( . Sorry for the false hopes.
