Nitter.net's SSL certificate expired yesterday. It's using HTTPS strict mode so the browser won't let you view it anyway with the expired cert. I tried using "wget --no-check-certificate" and the server says 403 Forbidden so they've also taken the site down.
Nitter.it SSL also is expired, but you can still view the site because it's not using a strict mode.
Other instances are still working.
The free account lockdown they're talking about has been in place for months now. If you're not logged in you see the tweet, but no replies. Maybe Twitter is locking down the real accounts nitter uses to scrape, but that's not why nitter.net is down right now.

Nitter.it SSL also is expired, but you can still view the site because it's not using a pinned certificate.
