  1. Je voulais demander à des amies de quitter Twitter pour venir sur Mastodon. Selon moi les outils du genre #fedifinder #movetodon #Twitodon #debirdify sont la meilleure chose pour que ça marche. Le.viens de découvrir que cet outil ( sky-follower-bridge.dev/fr/ ) existe pour Bluesky. Ne serait il pas possible d'en recréer pour Mastodon? Enfin, si ça existe, je suis preneur. 😉

  4. Are there any functioning tools out there that are paying for #TwitterAPI access so that they can continue to offer great tools like #fedifinder #movetodon #Twitodon #debirdify etc used to be able to offer? i.e. helping to find your #Twitter #X contacts on #Mastodon?

  9. #Debirdify et #Twitodon n'existent plus pour retrouver des contacts sur les autres rézos ?

  10. @Enithka Hm, ik weet het niet. Vroeger had je tools zoals #Debirdify en kon je gemakkelijk je netwerk hier opbouwen, maar die zijn nu allemaal geblokkeerd op X.

  11. Außerdem habe ich jetzt Lust ein Feature zum Export der Blocklist zu bauen. Wie es #Debirdify schon hatte. Mal schauen, ob ich morgen die Energie dazu habe.

  12. @soltes I see that Musk has killed Twitter finally! 🤣 Did he already renamed apps in stores or is it still called Twitter? #debirdify

  13. As we're in the midst of another migration wave and this times sites reliant on the #twitter #API like #movetodon and #debirdify no longer work, remember it's massively more important than ever to boost posts and hashtag everything, stumbling across people you followed on the bird site is going to be harder than ever for new arrivals.

  18. @nomatic @FediFinder I don't see how that violates GDPR. I can maybe see an anti-trust angle, but I don't really know anything about law.

    Personally I'd be surprised if there were a law that mandates free (or cheap) API access for third parties.

    Banning #Movetodon and #Debirdify without explanation and without responding to inquiries was an unfair move from Twitter for sure (although probably not illegal), but since Twitter has been announcing that they would shut down all API access for everyone anyway I think it would be hard to pursue that angle anyway.

  23. Wondering if there is something like #fedifinder or #debirdify but for finding #Facebook friends on Mastodon. Or does anyone have any tips for quickly finding FB friends here some other way?

  24. @dennishorn @gavinkarlmeier Hab gerade eine eurer aktuelleren „Haken dran“-Folgen gehört wo es auch um den API-Zugang bei Twitter ging.

    Ich habe das Tool #Debirdify entwickelt und da wurde der API-Zugang vor einem Monate "suspended", angeblich wegen eines Regelverstoßes und ich hätte deshalb eine E-Mail bekommen.

    Nur: Ich habe keine E-Mail bekommen und trotz mehrmaliger Nachfrage hat der Twitter-Support nicht reagiert.

  29. @charlesgaba @scafaria Just FYI the API access isn't gone yet. #Fedifinder still works.

    It's just that they suspended #Movetodon and #Debirdify (without giving a reason) but not #Fedifinder (not yet at least).

  34. @luca 10k GET sounds like absurdly few, especially for $100/month. That's 300 a day.

    For something like #Debirdify that would mean something like 100 users a day. Maximum I ever saw was 20k users a day. So even for a tiny experiment like Debirdify this would be much, much too little.

    Am I missing something or is it really that bad an offer?

  35. Hey guys, so #fedifinder and #debirdify are now essentially made useless, I thought they would still work if you downloaded a CSV file and uploaded it later to the search site of your twitter lists. I'm guessing that is no longer the case? Do you know of a site that does this?
  36. #Fedifinder still works to find your remaining followings from #Twitter in the #fediverse: fedifinder.glitch.me/

    It didn't at first when I tested it today, but after seeing that the old version (fedifinder-v1.glitch.me/) works, I gave it another try and it went through. Down to 538 from 617 accounts. Will have to look into what happened with the rest (deleted?).

    #Debirdify sadly got suspended by Twitter last week.

    #twitodon is still functional as well: twitodon.com/

  37. CW: bird site, Debirdify

    Not surprising, but the bird site suspended #Debirdify #Twitter

  38. #Debirdify è stato sospeso da Twitter senza preavviso o spiegazione. A quanto pare avrebbe violato "le regole e le politiche di Twitter".

    Si sapeva che sarebbe potuto accadere; è successo ad altri servizi in passato, quindi non c'è da esser particolarmente sorpresi o tristi.

    Nel frattempo Fedifinder funziona ancora:

    :fediverso: fedifinder.social.

    Usatelo per trovare i vostri amici di twitter su mastodon e sul fediverso finché siete in tempo!

    #fediverso #twitter #mastodon #fedifinder

  39. @debirdify There needs to be a word for shocked and not surprised. 👆 #Debirdify

  40. What does this mean? What was suspended?

    I thought #debirdify accessed the #twitterAPI via the user's account?

    Is it something another user could resurrect from the github code?

  41. Just a thought: #Debirdify *is* open source, so in principle, other people could host their own Debirdify instances with their own Twitter developer account, but if the original one violated Twitter rules than theirs would, too (probably).

  42. @luca @rstockm #Debirdify wurde von Twitter gesperrt. Siehe unser letzter Toot dazu.

  43. #Debirdify has been suspended by Twitter without warning or explanation. Apparently it violated ‘Twitter rules and policies’, but that is all they told us.

    We contacted Twitter support about the situation, but we are not particularly optimistic.

    We always knew this could happen; it happened to other services in the past, so we are neither particularly surprised nor sad about it.

    In the mean time, Fedifinder still works: fedifinder.social

    Use it while you still can!

  44. This morning i ran #debirdify (which is still working by the way) and imported a lot of follows from #twitter - so you might get followed by a swam of #kirts

    Follow whichever match your interests.

    If you want to avoid politics etc. i try to keep these as just science stuff

  45. @stijnhisken

    it's more me struggling to deal with "Mastodon getting tripping"

    a swam of #kirts is trying to deal with a disconnected fediverse

    explained on my profile pages…
    @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] etc.

    or more succinctly…
    yes, multiple accounts

    this morning i ran #debirdify (which is still working by the way) and imported a lot of follows from #twitter

    if i ever get a system that works smoothly I'll do a big thread about it as #MastodonTips but now is not that time :/

  46. @rollipolliolis @john @pruvisto

    is #debirdify still working or were those error messages @john shared bad news?

  47. For a while now, I've been thinking about why some media accounts on #Mastodon grow rapidly and some don't really. The majority of them are filled automatically, so where's the decisive difference?
    It looks like I haven't seen the forest for the trees: By far the most helpful thing seems to be a linking to the account on Mastodon on the Twitter profile. So
    #Fedifinder and #Debirdify etc. can and as it seems very often do find it. At least until Twitter makes that impossible.

    Linking to Mastodon on the own homepage on the other hand doesn't seem to do much.

    My small sample suggests that media that link to their Mastodon account on Twitter did accumulate at least 6% of their follower-count, sometimes significantly more than 10%. Without this link, I found a maximum of under 4%.

    But there are two notable exceptions.
    @[email protected] until today did not publicize its Mastodon-handle on Twitter, but has reached 17%, whereas the austrian @[email protected] has the link (and its own instance), but stands at less than 1%.

    I think
    @[email protected] is growing because of the target audience and the fact, that we're from Germany (where #Mastodon is from) – apart from our content of course. I would hope, that our engagement helped too. But I have no explanation for the case of Der Standard. Maybe someone has an idea. And I certainly would like to see other examples.

    Here are the numbers (left Mastodon-Followers, right the ones on Twitter):

    Link on Twitter and Homepage:
    @[email protected] 11k vs. 51k (21%)
    @[email protected] 11k vs. 74k (14%)
    @[email protected] 44k vs. 700k (6%)

    Link on Twitter, but not on Homepage:
    @[email protected] 64k vs. 912k (7%)
    @[email protected] 3k vs. 370k (0,8)

    No Link on Twitter, but on the Homepage
    @[email protected] 6.5k vs. 430k (1,5%)

    No Link on Twitter or Homepage:
    @[email protected] 44k vs. 246k (17%)
    @[email protected] 6k vs. 166k (3,6%)
    @[email protected] 1.5k vs. 146k (1%)

  48. Was lange währt..

    Jetzt ist der #Mastodon-Account auch auf dem #Twitter-Profil verlinkt, womit ihn Tools wie #Fedifinder und #Debirdify finden können. Jedenfalls solange Twitter das noch erlaubt.
