  2. 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. 😉

  5. @luca @foxxyjay Since I have just discovered the 'Sky Follower Bridge' script: Wouldn't it be possible to reactivate the #Fedifinder the way it is used there? Open the Twitter page with followers, start the script which processes the contents of the page.

  6. 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?

  11. Damn I just found out that #Fedifinder is no longer working :tiredcat:

  12. @luca many thanks for your efforts.

    I don't have any useful thoughts to contribute to your questions above, but just wanted to thank you for your previous #fedifinder work and to let you know that I wait with baited breath for this new offering.

    I was just about to recommend FediFinder to a new #Mastodon user and was sad to discover it's effectively been killed by Musk's API price hikes (I'm presuming?) 😭

    In the meantime, are you aware of any still functioning alternatives? Thanks!

  13. I am working on a replacement for #fedifinder: Cross platform follow management.

    I want to make it easy to reconnect with people you like but also to disconnect from the ones you don't like. Show you if someone joined a platform you are using as well and help you remove them from your followings if you are no longer interested in their content or want to block them. Without searching for them individually on each platform.

    Main challenges:
    - Tech: Many platforms don't have APIs anymore
    - Legal: Platforms try to prohibit scraping
    - Legal: What legal basis do I have for data collection and processing
    - Ethic: How to not show accounts who do not want to be shown (I want to only use public information. Eg. links in bios or on websites. Is following no-index tags and nobot in bios enough?)
    - Money: Putting some features behind a paywall or find a different model

    Before I invest time into coding, I would love to hear your opinions. (I have a small budget for consultations. If you have more to say, feel free to sent me a mail [email protected] with your fee. Especially if you are part of a marginalized group and/or could be hurt by a service that makes it easy to discover accounts across multiple platforms.)

  14. Der #FediFinder is wahrscheinlich immer noch kaputt oder?

    Ich wollt nämlich nomma gucken ob Leute von früher mittlerweile unerkannt rüber gewandert sind!

  15. @foxxyjay Thanks for the info.

    X revoked my last API project with viable access limits. At the moment, I don't think I will be able to get #fedifinder working again.

  16. Eben sah ich zufällig, dass der #Fedifinder immer noch funktioniert: fedifinder.glitch.me/
    @luca hat ihn sogar weiterentwickelt. Danke!

    Also habe ich ihn nochmal laufen lassen, um zu sehen, ob weitere Twitterkontakte Elon entkommen sind. Dafür musste ich mich zum ersten Mal seit einem Vierteljahr bei Twitter einloggen. Es lohnt sich nicht. Die 15 Benachrichtigungen waren alle Spam.

    Aber Fedifinder lohnt sich! In meinem Fall sieht das Ergebnis so aus:

    3325 unique accounts scanned
    871 unique handles from working fediverse domains found

  17. Oh I just scanned accounts on lists from the birdsite with #fedifinder, and now I am following all sorts of accounts that I did not intend following and that wasnt following on the birdsite 🤦‍♀️ great, going to check them one by one now...

  18. - Nochmal den #Fedifinder genutzt✓ (danke @luca)
    - inaktiven Twitter-Acccount deaktiviert✓
    - Note to self: In 31 Tagen fragen, ob der Account gelöscht wurde.

  19. @Rembremerdeng Der #FediFinder von @luca fedifinder.glitch.me/ ist *sehr* nützlich für den Einstieg. Du wirst vermutlich überrascht sein, wie viele Du hier schon kennst ...

  20. Der #Fedifinder funktioniert noch immer und fördert auch jetzt noch neue-alte Profile zutage: fedifinder.glitch.me/

  21. @smashthebunny Also für mich funktioniert die Suche nach Personen auf Mastodon gut, meinte das 😊
    Btw kann ggf. auch der #FediFinder helfen, Twitter peoplez hier zu finden.

  22. @energisch_ @askfedi_de

    Danke, ich habe mit dem #Fedifinder gerade alles importiert (und auf Twitter Werbung dafür gemacht 😬)

  23. #FediFinder I’m trying to find an article I read here (I think), I thought I boosted it but couldn’t find it. Searched DDG and had no luck. It was an article on capitalist risk and how finite risk doesn’t warrant infinite reward. It had a story about saving someone’s life, then asking for a beer at a pub after. Then doing that the next week, and the next, until eventually the person whose life was saved stops buying the beer. I wanna say it was a Substack. Anything pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

  24. fedifinder.glitch.me/ finds contacts on #bluesky as well. I am still waiting for other #ATProto instances to materialize. While I like certain aspects of the protocol, it doesn't reflect how I want communities to function (see social.luca.run/@luca/11028277).

    From my 2042 followings, #fedifinder found 488 fediverse handles and 104 bluesky handles (at least 9 false positives).

  25. Weil #Musk #Xcorp das Blockfeature abschaffen möchte, habe ich wieder mal den #fedifinder repariert. Am Handy im Bett (macht keinen Spaß). Und jedes Mal denke ich mir, dass eine langfristige Lösung zu aufwändig ist, weil sowieso in ein paar Tagen die API weg ist. Seit einem halben Jahr. #Twitter

    fedifinder.glitch.me

  26. Nochmal möglicherweise zurettende verlorene Seelen von dieser anderen, unsäglichen Plattform importiert, die mit #fedifinder auffindbar waren. So 10 Neue waren eventuell dabei, wenn ich mir meine Followings anschaue. #Mastodon
    fedifinder.glitch.me funktioniert noch. 🙂

  27. @charles_ex @Ginger149 @aloa5 @stefanieschulte #fedifinder only loads 1000 now and seemingly ditched all major Mastodon domains. Threads bsky from those 1000 I think @luca Mastodon X fault
    Xdaily mentioned algorithm updates to mention social media competitors . Where I had in profile this one shadow ban @pkreissel

  28. So, I was just going back through some of my older #YouTube videos and stumbled across the fact that the old #Fedifinder site to help Mastodon users find and import their Twitter/𝕏 accounts is back up and working.

    It's also had some upgrades done to it that will help you to find followers that have moved to #Threads or #BlueSky.

    Kind of cool to see them still developing and growing the tool. :D

  29. So I just used this export tool called #fedifinder and it seems to work bringing my followers from #Twitter to here.

  31. It seems like the #TwitterAPI has been turned off for real this time. #Fedifinder doesn't work anymore.

    I don't know yet, if I will keep working on it. I don't even have the energy to think about it at the moment.

  32. 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?

  33. @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).

  38. 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?
  39. #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/

  40. #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:

  41. 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%)

  42. 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.
