yes we should have a nitter bot, like the piped bot.
here it is a pleasure to strip the data out of the API for you: https://nitter.net/sethforprivacy/status/1715370818195140720
Thanks :) It’s great that nitter.net stopped blocking Tor again! I happened to notice that a while ago too, via c/monerochan https://monero.town/post/901193 - ideally privacy advocates should stop using Twitter itself though…
The most centralized part of the Monero network may be mining (i.e. potential weakness, as a centralized pool is an easy target for “them” to shut down), without which the network wouldn’t work. Ideally, if possible, users may want to consider running p2pool too, not just a full node. Like monerod, p2pool can be a background task, not using full cores, so one can still use their computer like normally, even if it’s not a dedicated box for mining.
