4) The "Bitcoin Independence Day" is only coincidentally related to Segwit. The relevance of it is rejecting control of Bitcoin by miners. Several developers attempted to re-assert miner control over Bitcoin 2 years ago with Taproot (so-called "Speedy Trial"), and it's important to remember what "Bitcoin Independence Day" was all about (and the lessons we supposedly learned) and push back against that to ensure it never happens again.

It can still happen on nostr.
Saving local copies is the only solution for either Twitter, nostr, or anything else
Thank you for the explanation!
In fact, upon further reflection, it's very important to call this out. Bitcoin independence day is about UASF, _NOT_ about segwit. Making it about segwit distracts from the real meaning and we need to ensure UASF mindset remains prevalent in Bitcoin, especially these days.
Need software to do this easily and automatically.
