Nitter's kinda busted now with api changes twitter made. I don't think you can get the guest accounts they used as a workaround for cutting off free api access now.

I used to sub to a few hundred twitter accounts through nitter rss feeds, but they are all broken now. Maybe a locally hosted one would last some time, but I believe the nitter dev has called it a dead project and isn't going to continue to try and work around Musk's bullshit.
Nitter can still work with real accounts, apparently including suspended accounts, but you need an account registered before iirc 2016 for it to have high enough limits. Also Twitter might eventually totally ban accounts involved with this, since you're not making them money. And since this doesn't really scale for large instances, if Twitter makes any internal changes Nitter might break a for long time/die for good.

You probably still could, but you would then have to pay Twitter for API access and they are charging truly exorbitant amounts.
You don't need to pay money, Nitter pretends to be Android and uses the internal Twitter APIs, not the ones for external developers.
