  • Twitter will open source all code used to recommend tweets on March 31

    That's exactly what https://github.com/NicolasConstant/BirdsiteLive is, their purposes are distinct
  • Is that all you need?

    Partially true. There are tools that mirror Twitter accounts into the Fediverse. In fact, you can set up such tools for yourself. I personally did that for only a few news sites. Everyone else that I care about migrated or at least crossposted to Mastodon already. You may find more people on there than you think. A lot has changed in the last months and weeks. There’s also a tool that helps you with finding your Twitter followings.
  • Creating mastodon account that's a feed of multiple twitter accounts
    1 project | /r/Mastodon | 16 Dec 2022
    There are a bunch of people out there running theBirdsite Live software which will automatically monitor twitter accounts and post them to Mastodon. However the person that wrote the software does not think it should be used anymore.
  • Are there any tools that allow you to bridge the twitter accounts you follow into your Mastodon feed?
    1 project | /r/Mastodon | 30 Nov 2022
    I've come across BirdsiteLIVE, but that requires you to import one twitter account at a time. Is there a way to bulk-bridge all the accounts I follow?
  • Convert Nginx config to Traefik headers?
    1 project | /r/Traefik | 28 Nov 2022
    I think the proxy_cache_bypass header not being present may be causing the issues as the behavior I'm seeing is described in this issue https://github.com/NicolasConstant/BirdsiteLive/issues/125 and the solution was apparently to implement proxy_cache_bypass

    I did the same and am pretty happy with the end result, but be warned: the official guide requires you to install a full Ruby dev kit to run an instance, with Docker being available but poorly documented (as configuration requires running separate commands rather than just writing a file).

    It's not hard, but if you're like me and you don't like polluting your server system with all kinds of dev tools in the global space, you may need somewhat of an understanding of Docker to get everything running smoothly.

    One thing to note is that if you're going to be the only one using your server, you may want to enable single user mode. It's a mode for the Mastodon frontend that's optimized for deployments with a single user account.

    For those considering the switch, I also recommend checking out https://github.com/NicolasConstant/BirdsiteLive and setting up an instance. With your Twitter account you can register for an API key and then mirror all the Twitter users that aren't on the Fediverse yet! It's unidirectional but as most Twitter users seem rather passive anyway, this can make the transition rather easy.

    To prevent others from using your keys and quota, you can safely limit ingress to BirdSiteLive to only your Mastodon server. You end up with proxied tweets only visible to users of your server.

    Some folk are setting up Birdsite Live to get access to those tweets without needing to actually use Twitter. https://github.com/NicolasConstant/BirdsiteLive
