I stopped my Twitter cross-poster after Nitter and related instances decided subscribing to Twitter accounts through them is not OK. i understand this may be understood as "scraping", but what I did was 1) performed through their official API/RSS feeds 2) the same what I would do with any Twitter client.

If my traffic was too high (I highly doubt it was as I only retrieved data I could humanly process and even implemented round-robin for load balancing) I sincerely apologize, but it seems my client is specifically banned now, independently from the frequency/amount of the requests.

Will give a shot with automation through bird.makeup....
