Except half of the instances are rate limited, so unless you know the username or tweet you are looking for, good luck searching for anything.

Oh, does it mostly affect searching?

99% of the time I touch twitter, it's to go to a specific tweet or timeline.

  • I don't know for sure, I've been watching a couple accounts that have been dormant for a while, but several instances have broken search, so maybe the account pages are cached.

    Edit: I just checked an instance and it seems to have tweets from the past minute or two, but if the backend accounts that drive them are getting banned, it's probably gonna tank in the upcoming weeks.

Good to hear. I only follow specific users via nitter (via Feedbro extension)
