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?
@drcable Like, as things currently stand you can set up something like the thing at the bottom of this page: https://opensource.com/article/17/4/guide-to-mastodon
If you're a programmer. So it's okay to pollute the timelines, as long as you're a programmer? Seems unfair!
@cassolotl maybe it's not fair, but making it easier certainly encourages the behavior?
@drcable It makes it accessible, which is not the same as encouraging it, I feel.
