I would actually consider using this just to remind people there that #nostr exists.
Haha Iโve been messing around with something to do the reverse

What happens when it runs up against the character limit?
Does it include replies?
Why still use X though? ๐คท

Does this only work from nos.social?
I just tried it and some guy responded from the fediverse but nothing on Twitter
Meh, I could easily mirror all of this pure, unadulterated and unfiltered wit to the X-twit masses... But they wouldn't get it.


Did I do it wrong? Heheh.


what about to/from threads?
i'm there also ;)
We had a rate limit problem but weโve pushed a fix so hopefully weโll be able to play nice by xโs rules.
K
where can I see examples? Great idea!
I get this when I try to X authenticate
error calling login or register handler: transaction error: error calling the provided function: error getting or creating account: error creating the account: error saving the new account: error executing the insert query: database is locked
This is the proper flow. I remember a big turn off when I first started exploring Mastodon some years ago was the majority just seemed to be Twitter bots reposting from Twitter.
Make no mistake this is a hostile attack. Having the authentic conversation here only to leave the platforms a ghost town of unresponsive bots.
Keep up the good work.
Is there some distinct metadata trace that would make it trivial for Twitter to deboost visibility?
xitter dun wannan competitor brah
I deleted Twitter a while back, but this looks cool!
Weโre getting errors where twitter says weโre over their rate limit but weโre like 1% of it. Itโs become an unreliable platform again.
That sucks.

Me da error que puedo hacer?


Woah this is amazing

Nice work, thank you!
Can you remove the "Nostr note made by npub" or make it optional? I think it becomes irritating to readers if it's on every tweet. Also, ideally, the njump me link would go to an njump for the nostr post, not my profile.


I agree. I dont like seeing that either.

[Apologies if this is the wrong place to post feedback for this service -- please feel free to direct me to a better place.]
Thanks again for creating this service! It's great--I'm glad to have it. My feedback is only intended to help improve the service.
1. I know Twitter doesn't yet support uploading longform tweets via the API. When it becomes possible to do so, I would prefer that the tweet not be truncated.
2. May we also have a flag to turn off the njump link? Unfortunately, Twitter posts mostly a duplicate of the tweet as a preview in blinding black on white text.
3. Would like to be able to upload attached images directly to Twitter. As I think only one image per upload is allowed, upload the first image in the tweet, if there are multiple images.
Example tweet posted below.


Ok I finally managed to sit down and think about this after I got over the jet lag and getting sick. I translated all the suggestions into GitHub issues to make sure that they arenโt lost.
I think posting long tweets would make perfect sense and would let us remove the njump links completely which you mentioned as a problem in the second point. That being said I agree that right now I donโt think this is possible using the API? I feel like it should be so maybe there is a way but the docs for the new API arenโt great right now I feel.
Regarding the njump links: I like them because it helps find the original content but at the same time I agree that they look awkward and out of place. I can think of multiple approaches:
- skip rendering njump links when notes arenโt cut off because they fit in one tweet
- remove njump links completely even if a note is cut off
- donโt post notes which are too long
- post long notes as threads with multiple tweets
- let people decide what to do on a per-feed basis which unfortunately complicates the website
All of those solutions have downsides and I donโt know what the best one is.
Images can be posted directly to twitter but the problem is that that loses context around where that image was in the note. For example I often post links to content images and write in between them like I did in this note. This just doesnโt translate into the twitter format.
Basically I feel we are dealing with all the typical problems of crossposting from one platform to another :(
If anyone has any suggestions regarding any of those problems please let me know.

A related issue with long links in addition to the awkwardness is that this, for example: https://njump.me/nevent1qqst06sg76dyyv5n8n0drgaaeyll7m8ffll66f27xyudfnac646je6q68dhq6
takes 85/500 chars on Mastodon toot.
24/300 in Bsky (itโs capped on URLs) or none if posted as an embed and not in the body), and
43/300 in X (if I got it right).
That makes cross-posting or composing notes hard to do at once.
Weirdly, you can put more characters on Bsky by deleting the URL from the body text than what X allows (for non-verified) ๐
