As I’m not using it actively for months and want to stop using it, I want to delete my Twitter account. However I still have one use-case that prevents me doing that. My city local police is sending some traffic related news only on Twitter and I use the notification functionality of Twitter official client to be informed as soon as they post something.
I have tested some open source Twitter client which works pretty well for looking at content in my opinion but none of them have the capacity to push a notification when a post is done in a specific followed account.
Do you have some recommendations (it would be best if it’s open source but I’m not completely closed to “free as in free beer” alternatives) ?
Thanks.
they’ll soon stop doing only on X, first because X will ban them unless they pay a ridiculous amount of money to get “verified”, then, because you can’t see tweets (exes?) if you aren’t logged in, its utility as a public service is nullified. As soon the public service will notice that the public channel is no more public, they will switch to a different microblogging service. Saw many traffic/weather alerts switch to something else in my country (mostly telegram, unfortunately)
Indeed part of the goal is to wait they are forced to switch to some more open stuff
