@jesse Haven't looked at the Twitter-Archive-Data, but: will that include posts/replies from non-you? AFAIK not. So, any interaction with your tweets won't be existing within the Fediverse anyway? Or what am I missing?
@wusel @jesse Speaking for myself, the value of having the Twitter archive is that I can go back to a thread when I talked about something, the same way I would a blog post if I still wrote blogs.
(Mastodon makes that less useful because of the lack of full text search, so my ability to find them will be significantly decreased; I'm planning on creating a static archive on my website instead.)
@crschmidt @jesse Well, I still blog, and having a searchable archive of my tweets _and_ the interactions with them on Twitter would be great. But, of course, those »threads« have to have external replies as well to be useful, and that's a different story, AFAICS.
@wusel I interact with my own tweets.
@jesse Your mean like this? (Pic)
IMHO, something like an archive.org snapshot should be created and stored locally for any thread from »the bridsite«. After all, the Twitter export doesn't reflect any account renamings since a tweet was sent, so the longer one's archive goes back, the more errorprone it gets :-(
@wusel 3 doesn't backdate posts.
I have numerous threads going back years and frequently refer to or reference historical tweets.
