[BUG] Application not functioning #663
Comments
|
Over on the nitter bug tracker it says that Twitter just banned unauthenticated access to the endpoint used for search. See here: zedeus/nitter#783 (comment) |
|
Same issue here, noticed one nitter instance still working for now. Hopefully there is a way around this. |
|
Same issue (device: OP6). Though I can browse individual profiles without problem. Can also see media. |
|
Twitter has completely removed the search functionality for non-registered users (also, on the web page). Note: The "dropdown"-search still works. But the results are probably much worse. It seems, it can only find users, hashtags and common terms. And also, it would not be possible to click on a result. |
|
Same here |
|
Also here the same issue. Fritter had the last update in December, looks like it is not maintained anymore |
|
Same here |
|
Same here. Goodbye Fritter :( |
|
Experienced this right now. Is this able to be solved? |
Categorically false, last commit was on March 15, although that commit and a couple of previous ones were weblate translations. |
Last I checked, the dev said they can't dedicate as much time to Fritter but the project hasn't died. #620 (comment) |
|
Dev needs to either hotfix this asap or his app WILL be dead and useless, this is a sad fact. A non functional app is worth nothing. |
|
Oh dear, what a shit parade swapping over from frustrated twitters. |
Yes, indeed, the dev invested an enormous amount of time in creating and maintaining Fritter so I would definitely not blame the author of Fritter. Even though I haven't done actual tests, my reasoning and professional dev experience tell me this is 100% caused by API changes Twitter did. Note: I didn't submit this issue for all of you to bash the author, I submitted it so that he can be aware of the new issue. |
|
Maybe developer can do some redirect option to nitter to solve twitter restrictions |
|
I'd recommend using the official twitter client patched with the TwiF*cker module for now. You can find pre-patched apks on sites like mobilism. For anyone else looking to migrate you can get a list of all the accounts you are following with jq: Settings > Data > Export data > Export subscriptions
|

Correct me if I am wrong but, Revanced is just a modded twitter tho that requires you still to login? The benefit with Fritter at least for me is it doesn't require a login at all. I can just pull it up and see a feed without an account. Side note for me anyways. Nitter is great and all, but there is no option to have a real feed. So even using the RSS feeds, still need a feed reader, at which point I'd almost rather just use the "subscription" option that still working in fritter for now to see accounts and can at least navigate the app a but more. I don't know enough about mobile development to help with this project unfortunately but seeing as subscriptions still work, and they appear to be using the GraphQL API as does nitter I'd optimistic it could be patched whether by the dev here or a fork. |
I think the whole point of the API change was to force users to log in. There's no real way around it, using a mobile app at least. My RSSHub instance appears to still be working. Currently I have MonitoRSS set up to push twitter updates to discord, that works as a decent feed for me. |
|
If the twitter feed is the real deal, and user pages are not going to be affected. A solution could be recreating the feed locally instead of fetching it from the twitter serves, just like an actual RSS feed client would do. |
So do you just create RSS feeds individually for each person's account that you follow? I'm trying to get this setup right now. |
|
Following individual accounts is still possible in fritter. |
|
It is possible to still view tweets individual per followed account and fritter knows the list of followed accounts. Wouldn't it be possible to get a timeline again by fetching tweets per account and sorting the result by time? |
|
As for now my solution is Feeder + Nitter.nl instance for following few accounts |
|
How are you getting individual feeds from a nitter instance?
Edit: nm, I figured it out! Thanks for the tip

My solution is Nitter as several bookmarks in a browser and to create a timeline use multiple user feeds in the link sepeated by comma example Dutch news feeds |

Hello all - sorry about this. As noted in the linked Nitter thread (zedeus/nitter#783 (comment)), Twitter has recently blocked access to the API Fritter uses to generate group feeds. I'll try and push a fix up for it this weekend, but I can't make any promises - I don't have as much free time to work on Fritter as I'd like at the moment. Please be patient, and I'll try to fix this ASAP 🙂 |
|
Will you do a release, too? |
|
Would be great, fritter is by far the best in it's kind. So I will wait for the fix, thanks in advance. |
|
Oh wow, I love that method!

I am truly saddened by the fact that more and more social media networks are getting more closed. I loved the fact that I could use this amazing app to search for hash tags and recent events. I truly hope there is a way around the API/Twitter changes. Maybe together with other developers we can help the dev make something workable again! thanks for the great efforts so far |
|
A new beta version has been released. It appears to fix the latest round of Twitter API breakages, but please report back in another issue if there are still broken pieces of functionality 🙂 |
None of the feeds load for me in beta7:
|
Same for me.. feeds not loading. |
|
I got it to work, had to clean install the app and import the previous
settings. Searching for users is still broken but searching across Tweets
and the main feed is working fine.
Edit: Now I have #668
|
|
Yep the import worked on a fresh install. Thanks |
|
Will this be available on F-Droid too? F-Droid is still stuck in beta 5. |
|
Good stuff. Fresh install working for the feed. Quote replies do not show up tho. |
|
The feeds seem to show some content without reinstalling if the filter has either replies or retweets enabled but still occasionally get:
|
Are the individual twitter profiles accessible with beta7? |
|
Does anybody know when the beta will be available in Google Play? |
Tweets on the profile pages were still accessible before and in beta 7. It was just the main and group feeds that were affected. |
Thank you! |
|
I'm waiting for a fix to be released in the stable (non-beta) version on F-Droid. |
|
Does not work for me. In "Feed", I just get an error message "type 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'String' in type cast". Edit: After completely deleting all data of the app and reimporting my setting, I can reload the feed twice. Then I'm back to the same "type cast" error. |
Indeed, for me too, only individual profiles work. I tried installing from scratch and importing old settings, didn't work. |
I get this constantly as well. Playing with filters sometimes brings the feed up. Otherwise, i uninstall, reinstall, and it works again for a bit. Really not ideal, but at least on the reinstall I don't need to re-import everything. |
|
Net beta still does not work for me. Feed is showing "FormatException: Unexpected end of input (at character 1)" after importing backup of prior version. |
This method suddenly stopped working. I was really enjoying it. Is it working for you? |
|
No also for me it stopped. Yesterday nitter.net was not active for a short while and when it became active, this function was not possible. I also put nitter now in a RSS reader. I use nunti, wich for me is my favorite. Although the feed can refresh to minimal an hour, the look and feel is good an all can be browsed in the app if you turn this on. For now i wait for a fritter fix, but probably takes some time and because I really like fritter I will wait patiently and check the git every now and then. |
and others
Describe the bug
As mentioned in the title, the application stopped functioning since this morning. The feed page does not work - see screenshot - the profiles I'm subscribed to, sometimes open, sometimes don't but almost all of them show 0 media, only text tweets even though the profiles have media.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Screenshots
Note: this is the Feed page itself, no profile/status/media open.
Device
Device model: Samsung A6+ 2018 (A605FN),
