@mongrelion You should checkout https://petals.ml/
So Patreon gives the twitter handle of my supporter, but there is no easy way to do the same with fediverse handle 😤
Would have made my life so easy giving perks to subs!
2 big milestone overnight on bird.makeup: 5000 users following 10000 twitter handles!
Also someone subscribed to 500 new twitter handle in one go so the service is a bit behind until it catches up....
Please consider supporting it if you like the service https://www.patreon.com/birddotmakeup 😄
@mrcippy Right now it's pay what you want: https://www.patreon.com/birddotmakeup
Thinking of having tiers to once we reach scaling limits and I'm going to start having to prioritize things.
Eventually I want to do a version for instagram, and it's probably going to be only available to patreon supporters.

Hello! I am now on mastodon!
After the scale increase from this weekend on bird.makeup, we are now pulling 400GB of tweets PER DAY. Unreal
@gpollara 1: Yes for threads right now, planning on enabling general replies soon. Some more optimizations to do before I can. 2: Currently 12 minutes. It's shown at the bottom of the homepage
Right now QT on bird.makeup show up as a link to the thread on twitter.com. Should I make a native UI on bird.makeup to show the thread?
If you have a strong opinion, why?
@smallsco You can now tweak that with: Instance__ParallelTwitterRequests=2 or whatever
Just deployed a fix for bird.makeup, threads should now be properly replicated

@Tehhund You can use nitter for that: https://nitter.net/POTUS/rss
@dansup Thank you, I joined!
I'm trying to make my twitter federator work with pixelfed, for accounts such as @dog_rates . Pixelfed seems to reject those accounts, but they work with mastodon. Is there anything I should change on my end to make it work?

FYI, if still missing your #traffic, #wx etc #news from over there, check out this Bird Makeup by @vincent
Just drop in thar Twitter handle here 👉 https://bird.makeup/
Cut/paste the new generated handle into Mastodon’s “Explore” box and follow it. Easy peas;)
I’ve already created quite a few for #seattle #PNW-focused sites (eg, SDOT, High Country) and it works great! Thanks, Vincent!
Of course, no idea if it too will be snared by 🐦 ongoing cancel culture 🤷🏻♀️

I made a graph of all my past relationships.
It has an ex axis and a why axis.

I'm happy to share that we're gearing up to support Mastodon in @buffer *very* soon! 🎉
I'm keen to be thoughtful about how we support Mastodon through the product and as a company: this is a very special community and technology. So we'll also be all ears as we introduce Buffer support.
We're looking for Buffer users (can be a brand new user, too!) to help us with early testing of our Mastodon support, so if you want to try it, reply here!
We crossed 4000 users overnight on bird.makeup! 🎊
Also since we are iterating on all followed twitter accounts in ~21 minutes right now, I am pretty sure we are already ready for the next 4000
Onwards!
