That feeling a week after getting fixed. #oldtweets

Emperor Palpatine smirks menacingly, delivering the line: 'Now witness the firepower of this fully unarmed but operational battle station!' A tongue-in-cheek nod to vasectomy humor.

My kid's ability to spill shit never failed to astonish. Thank God she grew out of this phase. #parenthood #oldtweets

As I delete my Twitter finally, it seems like the last people who had a chance to follow me here or by discord have finally done so, I thought I'd leave you with some old tweet recording my progress between 2018-2020. Starting with 2018.

Stopped biting my nails.

Told some people my shit and helped them with theirs.

Paid off my car.

Went to more social events and joined more friend groups.

More confident in public... became a bit more weird in public.

There is also Twitodon. But one of its steps is to log onto your Mastodon account, a step that can't be skipped.

Maybe it provides the option of direct transfer? I don't know. I recognize the necessity of logging into Twitter. No such need exists for Mastodon, so I passed.

Fedifinder's CSV file is 352 rows (not counting header), while Debirdify's is 312 rows. I suspect Fedifinder is figuring out the accounts Debirdify is unsure of.

Either way, I already added ~210 accounts manually (plus a few that are Mastodon-only) earlier.

So the advantage isn't the uploading, it's that these tools find the 300+ accounts in my 1800+ Twitter Following list. Which was a real pain to look through.

Debirdify is a lot more informative, although what you'd do with that information is the question. Nonetheless, it also downloads a file, accounts_following.csv. It also provides a list of maybe-Mastodon accounts that it wasn't sure of (the URL-style format, I suspect).

This is a little redundant on Mastodon, but it could be people are creating Mastodon accounts ab initio. So here are #oldtweets about it:

I finally tested Debirdify and Fedifinder on my account.

Fedifinder is very no-frills. Log in to your Twitter account, finds Mastodon accounts, downloads a fedifinder_accounts.csv file, and it's done. You log it out of your Twitter account as the last step.

Throwback to that time I had to fix the USB mass storage dialog because the artwork I had originally drawn was too scary.

Screenshot of Android's USB Mass Storage activity, unreleased, circa 2010. Artwork shows an Android bugdroid (classic proportions) with its head hinged open at the corner to reveal a USB cable. 

It was supposed to look like it had its hood open or something, but everyone thought it was being decapitated or consumed from within by a terrifying USB snake or something. OK, some folks also thought it was some sort of Terrance and Phillip homage, which it was not.
