Features & Capabilities

Nitter Instead is a Firefox Add-on to redirect all Twitter links to use the Nitter Instance https://nitter.kavin.rocks/. Nitter does not use JavaScript, has no ads, no tracking (your client never even touches Twitter servers), and its faster!

This Add-on was created for personal use, but published to comply with Mozilla’s guidelines. Code was mostly copied from Invidio Quick Redirect by Austin Moore and MDN Web Docs.

Is Nitter Instead Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Nitter Instead requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Nitter Instead may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
