4TA

Welcome. This service archives tweets posted on certain boards.

An anon posts a Twitter/X/Nitter link.
We gently crawl the catalog and threads every few minutes to look for those links, and add them to a queue.
The queue is processed every three minutes and saves a copy of the Twitter thread.

Q&A

The fuck is a "4TA"?

That's for "4chan Tweets Archiver".

I want something to be removed, what do I do?

We accept to remove very violent, doxxing and other revealing content pertaining to individuals upon request.
Please send all links for review to "kody+4ta「at」rita「dot」moe" by email, or contact "kdy" on Rizon IRC.

Do note that we might refuse requests for self-posted PII, embarrassing or stupid posts.
Be careful of what you post, we're not the only people who archive your stuff.

Can we request links, will it load anything we ask?

No, the link to the Tweet has to be posted in a thread and then be found by our crawler.

What kind of links can be archived?

We're using this regex, based on 4chan XT's for embeds:


          
          /(?:(?:(?:fx|vx)?twitter|(?:fixup|fixv)?x|twittpr|xcancel)\.com|nitter\.\w+\.\w+|4ta\.rita\.moe)\/(\w+\/status\/(\d+))/g

Basically, any status link from:

twitter.com
fxtwitter.com
vxtwitter.com
x.com
fixupx.com
fixvx.com
twittpr.com
xcancel.com
nitter.[domain].[tld]
4ta.rita.moe

Are attachments (pictures, gifs, videos) archived?

We save profile pictures since late-April 2025.
Starting from May 2025, we've also started archiving media for a list of allowed users, mostly streamers and agencies.
We're actively trying to avoid artists who aren't VTubers, and we're not saving every attachment we come across, as it is way too expensive and generally not a good idea (we've seen some shit).

Is there a profile view? Search?

No, to limit abuse and stalking. You'll need to have the posts' URL.

Can this be abused?

8-ball says "Absolutely".

I'm a nerd, do you have APIs?

Stats: GET /api/stats
Returns the stats and queue status.
References: GET /api/references/:id
Lists where that tweet was seen in a thread.
Thread: GET /api/2/thread/:id
Replicates fxTwitter's API under their "v2" path.
Status: GET /api/status/:id
Only gets the status object, without any archived version of the medias or adjustments.
