How to follow X (previously Twitter) via RSS:

  1. Find a Nitter instance supporting RSS. I use nitter.mint.lgbt.
  2. For a handle like @Astro_Jessica (NASA astronaut Jessica Meir)…
  3. the Nitter URL is https://nitter.mint.lgbt/Astro_Jessica
  4. Paste that into your feed reader, and it will figure out the rest.

Feed reader NetNewsWire shows Twitter posts from Jessica Meir. The selected one is a photo of Jessica smiling in a spacesuit with her husband and baby, with the following text. Wonderful to finally be back in a #spacesuit for the first time since being pregnant! Smiles all around with my husband and baby there to watch me submerge at the @NASA_Johnson #neutralbuoyancylab. @astro_luca and I evaluated tasks for upcoming #spacewalks on the @Space_Station - a day well spent supporting the @NASA team!

@sod I thought Poast was like a hate-spewing instance that was blocked by 9/10ths of the fediverse.

@bryan Dang, I had no idea they were running a controversial Mastodon instance. I've been using the Nitter service. Thanks for the heads-up! I've gone ahead and updated my post with, hopefully, a better example.

@sod I’m surprised Nitter still functions after the man child shut the API down.

@pimoore @sod bird.makeup also works and can follow it in Mastodon apps. But lately, posts have been very delayed. I use it only to follow the POTUS account which I hope moves to Mastodon (an instance for the Executive branch? @potus@executive.gov?)

@sod no worries, I just wasn’t sure if it was associated or not.
