The website is now at nitter.cz [1]. It has not been deleted. Psychologist Guy (talk) 00:17, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

It has been deleted. That’s just a different unofficial instance. That’s like saying Club Penguin isn’t dead because private servers exist.
official notice by the developer of Nitter:

I want to add that while it's true that, yes, Elon Musk did basically kill off Nitter, I have often had luck using one of the instances that is listed on the official Nitter Github page (making these at least quasi-official). Twitter can no longer be accessed via a guest account, and Twitter "rate limits" all access meaning that these continually break. So it's hit-or-miss.
If people want freer access to a social media platform then they definitely have to switch away from Twitter. But the ghost of Nitter is at least limping along. And this might deserve at least a minor mention on the Wikipedia page. As of the exact moment I am writing this, only one Nitter instance is working, but then again, you only need one at a time.
