Nitterium
---
**Nitterium** is a modern, native Android app that provides a clean, privacy-respecting way to consume Twitter/X content. By leveraging Nitter instances, it avoids tracking and requires no user account, all wrapped in a beautiful Jetpack Compose interface.
### 🤔 Why this?
While browsing Nitter on Android, I needed a way to subscribe to accounts I was interested in following, along with some customization options. That led to the creation of this app!
> [!Important]
> This app depends entirely on Nitter persistence and the operational state of public Nitter instances. It's important to check the source and health of the instance you are using.

## ✨ FEATURES
* 🔒 **Privacy First**: No ads, no tracking, and no Twitter/X account required.
* 🕸️ **Nitter Integration**: Browse seamlessly using your preferred Nitter instance via a custom WebView wrapper.
* 📌 **Subscriptions**: Save and manage your favorite accounts locally on your device. Each account can be rearranged individually by dragging and dropping to suit your preferences!
* 🗂️ **Feed Groups**: Organize your subscriptions into customizable categories with distinct icons and colors, breaking past URL length limits and keeping your feeds organized.
* 👆 **Long-Press & Sharing**: Easily share, copy, or open links, tweets, and media directly via intuitive long-press actions.
* 🖼️ **Intuitive Image Viewer**: Easily exit the image viewer by swiping up or down, and download images directly to your device.
* 🔄 **Pull-to-Refresh**: Swipe down to reload content seamlessly.
* 🎨 **Dynamic Theming**: Beautiful Material 3 design that automatically adapts to your system theme and wallpaper (Android 12+).
* 🚀 **Modern UI**: A fast, responsive user interface built entirely with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose.
* 🔗 **Deep Linking**: Automatically intercepts Twitter, X, and Nitter links to open them directly in the app.
* 🌍 **RTL Support**: Supports RTL content by default.
* ❤️ **FOSS**: 100% Free and Open-Source Software.
