Just use Nitter already. I even wrote a guide that even the biggest idiot on earth could understand.

Twitter is a horrid, feminist organization that we should starve of clicks as much as possible. To that end, here is a short tutorial of how Nitter works.
For example, if you're looking to link the Twitter of the Ferrari F1 team, you would use Nitter like this.
https://nitter.net/ScuderiaFerrari
Nitter links follow a simple format, where a Tweet's link is nearly the same except you switch out everything before the backslash and after the https.
So, for our example, we would take this link :
https://mobile.twitter.com/scuderiaferrari
Then change it like this
https://
mobile.twitter.comnitter.net/scuderiaferrariThis gives us the same page, but without Twitter trackers or ads, as well as the pop-ups for not having an account.
For a specific Tweet, for example, (staying on the theme) this picture of a Ferrari racing car in testing :
https://mobile.twitter.com/ScuderiaFerrari/status/1497218938765197324
We do the same thing, just swap the mobile.twitter.com for nitter.net and then submit.

Simple, right? Nitter links are not the same as archives, the content is deleted if Twitter removes it. The advantage of them is that they can be used without waiting for an archive to process, which takes a few minutes, and that they can load video.
Can you "follow" people on Nitter and get a chronological timeline? I know there's a privacy oriented YouTube app that does something similar for YouTube. I haven't had any use for Twatter since they got rid of the chronological timeline and started promoting shit from people I don't follow.
Unfortunately, no. It's just a bypass that strips Twitter's tracking and account locks.
