If you're a #MobileLinux Twitter addict, and #Cawbird no longer works for you, you can give good old touchscreen-unaware #Choqok (https://choqok.kde.org/) a try: As of today, it still works!

Looks like #Cawbird is switching over to Mastodon, due to Twitter's new API Ts & Cs.

#cawbird Ha dejado de funcionar?

Now here's a #curious #fact

Some third party #Linux #apps still #work with #Twitter. #Cawbird still works for example. What on earth is going on therer?

I only just noticed as I was tidying up old twitter accounts. I might leave that one for now just out of #curiosity.

Durante esta medianoche hora española ha dejado de funcionar #twidere y #cawbird. Esto es el fin de tuiter para mí. No voy a utilitzar su APP Oficial mierder.

Me mudo completamente aquí. Me sabe mal por algunas cuentas, pocas, realmente útiles que seguía. Pero habiéndome bajado del bus de Instagram hace tiempo, esto es la unica red social que me queda.

It's official. We're living on borrowed time.

Twitter has updated its Developer Agreement to ban "creating a substitute to the Twitter Applications" (§ II.A.c)

In preparation for when we're eventually unplugged: So long, and thanks for all the tweets!

"You're not going to put effort into your #FOSS #Twitter client because Musk is turning it into a stinking cesspit? Well, you'll lose users like me!" is certainly *a* view to take.

Big shrug from me, tbh.

#cawbird

What's that? I've got initial functionality to like and boost toots in #Cawbird 2.0 #NewCaw?

(Posted from the web, to be boosted by @cawbird through the app!)

Don't mind me. Just running development builds of #Cawbird 2.0 (#NewCaw) in read-only mode on Twitter and Mastodon.

Is it a #Cawbird-specific problem or do all third-party clients for the birdsite currently struggle? Because it currently hangs a lot and after running it from the terminal Cawbird now tends to show many "Connection terminated unexpectedly."-errors.

Did Musk shut down "micro"-services necessary for third-party clients to maintain a stable connection to the birdsite or sth?

The upside of smaller, more specific Mastodon instances is that you can find a community where "local" & "federated" feeds may include interesting stuff. And it'll be emerging human curation, not an algorithm.

The down side is that you only see what people on the server subscribe to.

So I can only see #Cawbird mentions on hachyderm.io and from people on other instances who are followed by people on hachyderm.io. Or on/followed by mastodon.social people, because @cawbird is still there.

@cawbird i use #Fedora 37 and #Cawbird in #Flatpak 😀

We just checked. #Fedora 37 is now available on @obshq. We've enabled #Cawbird builds and they're building! #WatchThisSpace

@killyourfm I'm waiting for the new #Cawbird that might bring mastodon support.

Currently I just use a browser. That works best for me.

@haeckerfelix Ohw wait #Cawbird will have #mastodon support? Game-changer!

#Librem5 battery life on
#postmarketOS (5.9.16-librem5.2), day 5:

Today I used it for all my social media again. I disconnected from the charger at 8:40 am, and the phone had shut down when I tried to use it after doing something the Librem 5 can't (taking a nap) at 4:50 pm. I used #Cawbird, #Tootle and #Giara, and #Nheko and also Firefox. The modem was on for the entire time, WiFi in the morning and after 2 pm.

#postmarketOS (5.9.16-librem5.2), day 4:

Today I used it for all my social media. I disconnected from the charger at 8:28 am, battery lasted until 4:46 pm (3%) when I plugged it in. I used #Cawbird, #Tootle and #Giara. Also I used #Nheko a bit during lunch break and checked my email in #Geary. The modem was on for the entire time, WiFi only from 1pm forward.

Just some screenshots of the Cawbird Twitter client running on the Pinephone. For you twitter users out there :D

Note: It could be better mobile optimized but its working and it doesn't appear to be that smooth when scrolling yet but thats just from looking at it quickly and not actual usage expirience. If you tried it and have something to add feel free to do so!
