Mastodon Flock: Migrate your tweeps to the Fediverse (mastodon-flock.vercel.app)

I thought part of the reason to go to the Fediverse was to associate with the kind of people who LEFT Twitter, not to bring all your Twitter tweeps to a platform with fewer features.


This is just another tool to find people you follow on Twitter that migrated to Mastodon. So it's still the first sentence you said.


"platform with fewer features" does not sound right, fediverse microblogging apps (there are many of them) are implemented on the rich W3C ActivityPub standard. It's not a platform, it's a huge and vibrant distributed ecosystem.

Twitter is (just) a very popular, proprietary microblogging platform.


I have been wanting something like this to exist and I'm grateful for it! Also, I love the retro style.


Wow, that’s… one way to make a UI.


I don't care about the real function of this website (don't use Twitter/Mastodon), but we should get UN to mandate that every website from today onwards must use this Windows 98 installer style for everything. I love it.


getting some kind of error at 0% of "twitter.exe"? The details just say serverError.


Wow, just used this and it's great!
