Nitter is a discontinued free and open source alternative frontend for Twitter, focusing on privacy and performance. Nitter is designed to allow access to Twitter without tracking, advertisements, or the need for an account. It only supports browsing, and cannot be used to sign in or interact with the Twitter community. Users can view user profiles, replies, media, and individual Tweets alongside their comments and Quote Tweets. Nitter also allows for searching by keywords, hashtags, usernames, locations, media and dates and supported the same formatting as Twitter's native advanced search function. It also supports creating RSS feeds for Twitter profiles. Read more on Wikipedia
