All you're doing is putting lipstick on a pig. This isn't even a better Nitter <https://nitter.net/about>.

If you want to do something useful, I'd like to see you create a Twitter look-alike that pulls from members' RSS/Atom/JSON feeds rather than letting them post directly. No likes, no reshares, no comments. Just pure feed aggregation in reverse chronological order like the Demiurge intended.

We need more webrings and sites like Nightfall City <https://nightfall.city/>, not FOSS developers reskinning a parasocial media site and not getting a dime in payment.

I know it's not as good as nitter(didn't know about it)

But I'm trying :), I see nitter has 22 contributors, Kizie has only one person working, give me some time I'll make it as better as I can

Comments like yours are such a stain to the community. If you have nothing constructive to say, keep it to yourself.

They're not wrong. What even is this? A monetised front for Twitter? Not even it's own site? It's garbage, sites like this are the 'stain to the community', not the people pointing it out.

What an incredible take. So we should never build alternative UI’s for X? It always has to be original software in every regard?

Unreal, get out of here with your bottom of the barrel thinking. Don’t trash on someone’s work because you lack creative thinking. It’s pathetic and unwanted.

You seem to be kind of shadowban (not sure what the proper term is), you might want to write an email to the hn moderation to clear that up

Regardless of differing political opinions and objectives, this comment comes off as unnecessarily aggressive and infers OP's tool is useless. I really wish stuff like this wasn't on Hacker News.
