If you just want a public viewer and don’t need to host Nitter yourself, I built Twitter viewer for that. No account required, although cached posts may not always be fully up to date.

That’s exactly why I built Twitter without an account. I don’t use X as a social network; I just wanted a quick way to open public posts people send me.
I had a similar goal with Hermes, but ended up splitting the context between separate profiles instead of teaching one agent everything. They share a Kanban board, while important decisions still come back to me.
It may be overkill for a homelab, but the profile isolation has worked better than I expected. I documented the setup here: https://github.com/nohuman-labs/agent-company
Having the handle since 2008 and still not owning it says everything. Your account is only yours until the platform wants it back.
The option to turn recommendations off should have existed from the start. Sometimes you just want to see what an account actually posted, without the platform deciding what else will keep you scrolling. That’s one reason Nitter,XCancel, Twitee.co live, a simple way to view public X posts without signing in.
Well, if it dies again, I’ll leave Twitee.co here as a backup
Really good news. The shutdown showed there’s still a real need for ways to view public X content without creating an account. I keep my pet project https://twitee.co/ for the same reason
