That’s a great idea

I am sure that the bank/government have one and are using it on me!

On Twitter desktop...you can go to Settings-Your Account-Download an Archive of your data. If you are lucky they will send a spreadsheet of all your tweets with timestamp. next would to figure how to upload on Nostr.

This would amazing. Actually, I had this same thoughy too. I think Elon is going to incentivize more blue checks by purging old data after X amount of time. I was planning on getting one thread that's very important to me, but I'd love to have it all.

You can download your content in a zip. Request in twitter settings. Then you can search for it in a local html file. Not the greatest but there are probably tools made to search the backup better.

Sometimes you just need to sweep out all the old baggage, and begin a clean slate. I made sure to make my most important threads into substack articles. Then nuked my twitter accounts.

The old has passed away; behold, the new has come

Could you use nitter.net ?It has an rss capability...move to rss reader? Or you can request a download of your dT from Twitter directly

You can still request an archive of your Twitter data, right? Not sure what format it comes in but that’s a start at least.

I will built it using flask and Replit! Lol jk

Request a twitter archive. It takes 2-5 days to for twitter to revert. You get access to all your data from day 1. https://void.cat/d/3DJ5eXZ2yEyGrYGKxmXaSw.webp

My nightly backup script broke when they killed off free API access.

I also have a question: how could we bring all people from x/twitter to nostr? First we should find out if the majority would like to switch to nostr and define a day for the transfer. I mean what are the benefits , beside of the network, to be on X / Twitter?

Make a twitter backup json converter and convert them to nostr events and send it to your relays, then you lose nothing

Cool idea. IIRC you can get your tweets as an archive when looking at your profile settings (from memory).

Download it. https://cdn.nostr.build/i/0a5ef15cdf955755fdf55f1d65278b103a5c68eb47d8b02faa2f21db5ac95ed0.jpg

Is it possible to backdate timestamps?

First download your archive, we'll work out the rest later. I was thinking to make a simple twitter archive relay implementation, shouldn't be too hard.

I'd pay for that!
