Twitter will be hard, I follow people there. Maybe I can learn how to make a tweet mirroring bot to the fediverse. No, that's probably not realistic. Fuck. Those tweets get me through the day and provide my news. This one I will need help with, comments appreciated.

This is a good idea, and something I've thought about a bit. I'm not a developer by any stretch of the imagination, but I am interested in learning and I know there is already a Python twitter scraper out there. Someone could definitely build something that would let you follow Twitter users without actually registering or participating on Twitter, although it wouldn't let you comment or anything like that.

There is already something of the sort for YouTube called FreeTube. Great project, lets you view YouTube through an open source desktop app, manage subscriptions locally, download videos, etc. I don't know if I'll ever be at the level to be able to create such a thing but having something like that to track the major social media platforms in the most anonymous/privacy-respecting fashion feasibly possible would be neat. A social aggregator of sorts, I suppose.
