Is there any app like Fritter? I mean, I need Twitter for my job, but in a passive way. What is the best option without login in the official app or website (Linux/Android).

Thanks!

Squawker maybe?

Edit: should mention that Musk has crippled the ability to browse twitter without a login - no search, no feeds etc, so I don't think we'll ever actually see anything with Fritter's feature set emerge without login capability

Just install nitter.net as web app.

I don't find the way to use it without going one by one the twitters account. That's what I meant like Fritter. Thanks anyway.

If you just need to get updates from accounts, there are Mastodon services that auto-mirror Twitter accounts. I use bird.makeup to follow a few gamedevs that have yet to move.

twiiit.com will redirect you to a random Nitter instance. Sometimes the instance is blocked, sometimes the random instance works.

It's slowly getting worse, as is ~~Twitter~~ X in general, but that's X for you.
