Elon posted this on Twitter (quoted from an private blog since I currently have no way to access twitter):

Temporary emergency measure. We were getting data pillaged so much that it was degrading service for normal users! Several hundred organizations (maybe more) were scraping Twitter data extremely aggressively, to the point where it was affecting the real user experience.

Lets hope that they lift this ban soon.

What nitter instance are you using? I'm getting an error message indicating an empty json document.

VPN Recommendations? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I switched to AirVPN after finding out that Mullvad disabled port forwarding. I have heard rumors that the did that because of people hosting cheese pizza via their VPN accounts.

The performance of AirVPN does vary, I had to try a couple of countries before I found a server that didn't throttle me (and I only have a 50MBit connection).

Maybe I will try Proton in the future, but then I would have to commit to a 2year subscription or pay a lot more.

Or you could just build a train!? in c/fuckcars@lemmy.fmhy.ml

How should a car in the middle of this "train" leave it?

Head and tail would have to detach, speed up/slow down to create a safe distance for the car in the middle to change lanes and after that the train has to reconnect? At highway speeds? Seriously?

Why when I am login on the new Jerboa app 0.35 it says that this server is not updated to the latest version? in c/freemediaheckyeah@lemmy.fmhy.ml

I am on the latest version of the app and it still works after I ignored the popup.
