What's New in Privacy Redirect

1.9.2

January 25, 2023

The primordial quagmire—the tohu va-vohu—of frontend instances is shifting, changing, never still. Look away and its glittering mass will morph and take on new forms. Or perhaps it was always this way? It's difficult to tell. We've updated the list of instances.

Outdated

The twitter domain is outdated.

Pointless

Hasn't been updated in forever so pretty much all the redirects are broken, and you can't add custom redirects to fix that.

Doesn‘t work for x.com

That was the primary reason I wanted to use the app

Unmaintained by Developer

I bought this extension because I don’t want to use Twitter and I wanted something that would redirect any Twitter link to the corresponding Nitter link. While the extension still technically works, the dev hasn’t updated the app in ~2 years which means the Nitter instances it points to no longer function and users can’t manually enter alternate Nitter instances. I considered submitting a PR to update the Nitter instances list but the devs haven’t even accepted a simple PR that would update their extension to work for x.com links.

Abandoned - doesn’t work on X

Everything is hardcoded, and it’s abandoned. Useless
