## What is this? This is @bcrypt's janky twitter replacement. ## History [Original tweet](https://twitter.com/bcrypt/status/1588416861552582657): ``` RT @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 to retweet: git cherry-pick ``` ## Setup * fork https://github.com/diracdeltas/tweets * in your fork: ``` git reset --hard d10b092 git push -f origin main ``` ## Stuff you can do * to post: ``` git commit -m "your post" --allow-empty git push ``` * to follow someone: ``` git remote add git fetch ``` * to follow everybody: `./follow-everybody.bash` * to repeat someone else's utterance: ``` git cherry-pick ``` * [people to follow](https://github.com/diracdeltas/tweets/network/members) * to refresh your timeline and view it: ``` git fetch --all && git rev-list --all --remotes --pretty | less ``` * to view your timeline in a cool way: ``` git log --graph --all --decorate --oneline ``` * to get verified: 1. [follow github's own verification instructions and make your commit email match your GPG key email](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/about-commit-signature-verification) 2. `git commit -S -m "your post" --allow-empty` from now on
