This is generally sad.

People hate a service, but they depend on it so much they create whole codebases to cope with it.

Depending on things we hate is a tragedy.

How about just admitting the things you hate? Then you can just drop it and live a happier life.

Unless you are of course somehow required/forced to use X, then I'm all for projects like these.

I think you're either over- or underthinking this. I don't want to have an X account, but I do sometimes want to follow a link to a specific tweet and be able to view the surrounding context. So sites like xcancel and nitter are useful to me.

So, in other words, you want the cargo, but without the tiring "pay for it" aspect?

I'm not trying to be difficult, but I'm not quite sure what this means! In literal terms, I want the ability to read tweets, see threads and replies, and view a user's tweets chronologically, and I don't think the second and third things are possible on X.com without an account. I don't want an account for various reasons, including that I don't want any temptation to become a regular or active user.
