  11 ## Nitter
  12
  13 [Nitter](https://github.com/zedeus/nitter) is a bloatless no-javascript front-end for Twitter, similar to Piped or Invidious.
  14 If you have a reason to look at Twitter for whatever reason, here's your free get-rid-of-bloat card. You can find [it here.](https://nitter.based.quest)

  16 ## PeerTube
  17 [PeerTube](https://joinpeertube.org) is a free/libre video sharing software funded by a non-profit organization Framsoft.
  18 Instead of interfacing a site like YouTube through bloatless front-ends, you get to use a platform that respects you.
  19 PeerTube is another one of the "fediverse" projects and hence is compatible with [ActivityPub platforms](https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/).
  20 Due to legal complications, if you wish to join the instance, you'll have to ask me personally for an account. [You can also find it here.](https://tv.based.quest)

  22 I hope I'm able to open registrations without a single worry in near future once GDPR worries are behind.
