Someone just asked for #Cawbird to be translated into Latin.

It has been dead for a year after Musk killed the Twitter API, and then the Twitter-and-Mastodon rewrite got canned. But someone only just asked for a translation.

I don't understand some people!

Twitter-Limit-Hack: Ironischerweise Drittanbieterclients ??!
#Cawbird mit den Arch-Linux-API-Keys (nur die sind noch nicht zurückgezogen) hat noch Twitter-Zugriff und damit kann ich trotz Überschreiten des 600er-Limits munter Twitter browsen, inklusive Antworten.

Development of #Cawbird #NewCaw is suspended indefinitely.

@CodedOre was leading the rewrite, but is too busy with university commitments - https://mastodon.online/@CodedOre/110395875840491711
@ibboard was considering stepping down but hadn't announced anything.

Musk has killed Twitter as a platform, so NewCaw's original focus on multi-platform support is dead. There are other Mastodon clients available. The dev team don't have the time/interest to build another.

If you're a #MobileLinux Twitter addict, and #Cawbird no longer works for you, you can give good old touchscreen-unaware #Choqok (https://choqok.kde.org/) a try: As of today, it still works!

Now here's a #curious #fact

Some third party #Linux #apps still #work with #Twitter. #Cawbird still works for example. What on earth is going on therer?

I only just noticed as I was tidying up old twitter accounts. I might leave that one for now just out of #curiosity.

Thread about the future of #cawbird, #linuxmobile's best twitter app:

It's official. We're living on borrowed time.

Twitter has updated its Developer Agreement to ban "creating a substitute to the Twitter Applications" (§ II.A.c)

In preparation for when we're eventually unplugged: So long, and thanks for all the tweets!

"You're not going to put effort into your #FOSS #Twitter client because Musk is turning it into a stinking cesspit? Well, you'll lose users like me!" is certainly *a* view to take.

Big shrug from me, tbh.

#cawbird

What's that? I've got initial functionality to like and boost toots in #Cawbird 2.0 #NewCaw?

(Posted from the web, to be boosted by @cawbird through the app!)

Don't mind me. Just running development builds of #Cawbird 2.0 (#NewCaw) in read-only mode on Twitter and Mastodon.

The upside of smaller, more specific Mastodon instances is that you can find a community where "local" & "federated" feeds may include interesting stuff. And it'll be emerging human curation, not an algorithm.

The down side is that you only see what people on the server subscribe to.

So I can only see #Cawbird mentions on hachyderm.io and from people on other instances who are followed by people on hachyderm.io. Or on/followed by mastodon.social people, because @cawbird is still there.

We just checked. #Fedora 37 is now available on @obshq. We've enabled #Cawbird builds and they're building! #WatchThisSpace

@killyourfm I'm waiting for the new #Cawbird that might bring mastodon support.

Currently I just use a browser. That works best for me.

@haeckerfelix Ohw wait #Cawbird will have #mastodon support? Game-changer!
