  • control-panel-for-twitter

    Browser extension which gives you more control over your Twitter timeline and adds missing features and UI improvements - available for desktop and mobile browsers

  • In terms of a browser extension for Twitter, I highly recommend Control Panel for Twitter. It works as a browser extension as well as on some mobile browsers. It is highly customizable to filter out who/what you don't want to see and is fully open source if you feel the need to tweak.

    It's updated regularly and the creator is highly active on Twitter to provide updates and answer questions - @ControlPanelFT

    If you decide to use it, drop the guy a donation, they work hard on it!

  • If the scrapper model dies where you use accounts to retrieve the content and stick it in an archival storage system, end game is browser extensions that scrape as users view the site and ship that back to a processor, similar to recap the law.

  • redlib

  • There's a fork of LibReddir called RedLib which should work better: https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib?tab=readme-ov-file#libr...

  • fediverser

  • The developer from bird.makeup is asking for donations of account tokens: https://www.patreon.com/posts/call-for-special-98167212

    I'm also thinking about adding twscrape support to my https://github.com/mushroomlabs/fediverser and extend its mirrors to Mastodon servers, but to be honest I can not afford (money- and time-wise) to get into yet-another project without at some minimal financial support.
