Stop using Twitter.
Ffs why are people still on that platform.
Sloth and apathy.
I’m an apathetic sloth and even I’m not on Twitter.
Remember when Twitter gave a copy of its entire archive to the Library of Congress, so that researchers and historians would always have this unique document of what people were talking about online in the early 2000s?
Time to use old school web scrapers and remind Elon why most companies provide API access to info that is otherwise available on their browser applications
People need to move to Mastodon fast. Twitter is finished. It’s over.
Mbin also support microblogging
@melroy Yes it does which’s amazing but some people like just having a Twitter alternative that is pretty close to what Twitter is, I don’t believe Mbin has an API so that Mobile Apps, sure I prefer Mbin / Kbin but unless you like the idea of a Hybrid between Twitter and Reddit then not everyone wants to go for it. Also, Mobile Apps help a lot as most people access the internet though there phones.
Mbin does has an API… https://mbin.melroy.org/api/docs Feel free to develop an app.
What is Mbin? I tried searching but nothing like what you describe came up.
Mbin is a fork of /kbin, created by the community for the community. Because the development of kbin became to a halt.
Thank you! I did not know that. I appreciate your response :)
I’m sorry, I still don’t understand how to find more information about it.
Edit: the link was not in the response I replied to here when I replied…makes sense now.
Are you familiar with kbin? If so what about the concept of “forking” software?
I am, and one reply to me added a link and another said it was a fork because of lack of development on kbin.
I’m all caught up now, thank you :)
Kbin is back, but two better!
It’s been a while since I slung Perl, but I’m pretty sure kbin + 2 = kbip, isn’t it?
Firefish is also looking nice.
