   We will explain quickly how to follow Twitter/X accounts with #Fedilab.

   - Open the main menu > Manage timelines
   - Tap on the + button at the top right
   - In the pop-up, enter usernames (space or comma between them)
   - Once the timeline is pinned at the top, you can long press the tab to change the name or add/remove followed accounts.

     Our instance does not work via the web though it is hosted at https://nitter.fedilab.app
     For following accounts you don't need extra steps, but it is available only in the last beta release.

     Earlier you mentioned a Nitter instance hosted by you. How do we go about using that?

     Also, a missing step is to enable Nitter n
     in the Privacy settings (Didn't work for me prior).

     Good choice. But if it is only about this feature, it was built as a helper for migrating.

     Guess it's time to move back to Tusky.

     No, this is more like "spying an account". You will have no interactions and the app will never communicate with Twitter/X servers.
     Our Nitter service will communicate with Twitter servers and you will get messages through it.

     @apps Does this add an actual "follower" to the Twitter account? or rack up page views for Twitter?

     There are some accounts there I'd really like to see, but I want to limit how much I do anything that looks like "support" for the site

     Yes, because under the scene, Nitter needs a Twitter account to work. But for the final user using the service, there is no connection with Twitter.

     Is the Nitter service considered a "user" from Twitter's perspective?

     I have 3.30.0-beta-1, so I guess should wait for an update?
     I see
     "No message to display" in the instance that I added.

     What beta version is required? I've got the latest from fdroid (3.30.0-beta-2) but when I add an account it says "No timelines was found on this instance!"
