What is this?

This is @bcrypt's janky twitter replacement.

Vision!

yan @bcrypt just made a "decentralized" "alternative" to twitter; everyone should go "join" it" to make an account: fork https://github.com/diracdeltas/tweets to tweet: git commit --allow-empty to follow someone: git remote add <alias> <their fork url> to retweet: git cherry-pick <their 'tweet'> 11:24 PM · Nov 3, 2022 ·Twitter Web App

 

Show this thread! (here in the Readme) it even has image support now: https://github.com/diracdeltas/tweets/commit/1e02b74ee2e06ed36ca885c838d460a073a0a061 7 no video support but if you scroll really fast... https://github.com/diracdeltas/tweets/commit/f7d8522ece59f97c49f53784b83ddbfb69c83c35 8 to refresh the timeline: git fetch --all && git rev-list --all --remotes --pretty | less https://twitter.com/ssch0ber Haha, that's actually a cool idea in my opinion! Limited to 60 chars... but git log --graph --all --decorate --oneline might look confusing? B omg this looks way cool: [img] see the 'suggested accounts' to 'follow' here:  https://github.com/diracdeltas/tweets/network/members

Setup

git reset --hard d10b092
git push -f origin main

Stuff you can do

  • to post:
git commit -m --allow-empty
git push
  • to follow someone:
git remote add <git name> <their fork of diracdelta's repo>
git fetch <git name>
  • to follow everybody using GitHub: make everybody

  • to repeat someone else's utterance:

git cherry-pick -x <their commit hash>
make refresh
make timeline
  • some alternative ways to view your timeline (use git show <commit hash> to show the full "tweet"):
make timeline-graph
make timeline-short
  • to get verified (GitHub-only):
  1. follow github's own verification instructions and make your commit email match your GPG key email
  2. git commit -S -m "your post" --allow-empty from now on
  • to encrypt a message:

see encrypt using the public key of a github user in https://sshenc.sh/ or use your favorite key distribution mechanism to get their public key.

  • to find a user @
make get_user q="User name"

or

make get_user [email protected]
