How much would it cost for someone to create and maintain a user-friendly foolproof trustworthy Twitter bridge that doesn't require the user to install anything anywhere, and also can we crowdfund it please.
@cassolotl like, is that what we really want? I think they're different places and maybe would have to run on botsin.space?
@drcable It would definitely have to be a bot? :S I have no idea how it would work, but that seems so messy!
@cassolotl I think it would breach the moderation policies of several instances, which is why botsin.space was made? like, it'd pollute timelines to some extent?
@drcable Are we talking about the same thing? Maybe I said it badly. Something that posts my tweets to my Mastodon account, and my Mastodon posts to my Twitter account, provided they don't start with an @?
@cassolotl yeah, but, like, I think they're different spaces and things like the local/federated timelines would be weird with tweets?
@drcable Ohh really? Why?
@cassolotl like, my twitter is a completely different place to this, as are many other peoples? and they may not get this. Either way, a way to opt out of seeing reposts would be great. Also, it would exacerbate the problem of dudes on .social using it like twitter/etc
@drcable Well, it would be optional and opt-in, for sure - I'm sure lots of people would be uninterested. But I think lots of people would like it.
I used a Twitter app that let you opt out of seeing posts from particular clients, like Instagram or whatever, and that was pretty cool! Maybe a similar thing could exist here.
