The probe for Twitter used to be a service called Nitter, which relied on the mass creation of guest accounts. This functionality was removed by Twitter, and in turn, Nitter slowly died as their existing guest accounts hit their 30 day expiration.

If anyone has suggestions for Nitter replacements, they will be investigated. Otherwise, Twitter will be removed from the manifest until a solution is found.

Note that Sotwe, a site mentioned in the "Nitter is dead" thread, uses Cloudflare, and isn't entirely compatible with Sherlock without the use of FlareSolverr.
