    perhaps consider xcancel.com, instead of the nitter instance ran by (the notoriously far-right) poast.

      unfortunately the poast one lets you open vid in new tab and save the video to your hard drive, whereas xcancel does not. not saying that's an endorsement, but it is pretty useful if you don't think something is going to stay up on twitter for political reasons.

        oh, that's interesting, I didn't know that. I've just been using some twitter downloader website

        seems like the difference is because poast directly links to twitters CDN, while the original nitter avoids any direct connections to twitter. Original nitter had a PR that made it work like poast does now, but nitter died before it could be merged.

          yt-dlp can download videos from twitter or any nitter instance or really any social media you can publicly view.
