Soooo quick summary for those who are not on Twitter

First a bit of context, here's how I proceed in order to handle such huge amounts of volo content that need curating. First I use tweetdeck (Fig.1), an official service that allows me to run multiple searches in parallel. I run advanced searches with smart filtering, this is how I find things. Then when I find content that meet the account policies, I put them in a Collection, a fancy name to designate what is just an arbitrary list of tweets. It's like a box for cool rocks. Finally, an algorithm that I coded will make API calls every 3 hours to fetch a few tweets, remove them from the collection and retweet them publicly. (Then I get tons of notifications lol)

So you may be aware that Twitter has been a shitshow of bad decisions since clown in chief is there. Well here are their last fucking genius ideas to mess with us (and jeopardise the account in the way)

Last week they announced that the API (free until then) would be paywalled. In ONE WEEK. That will effectively kill all the cool free tools and nots that you know. It does kill step 3 of my process. Vexing.

Clown in chief say it will probably be 100$/months wtf

I spent a few hours coding a solution that doesn't use the API and rethink my process. Yay minimal effort but we're safe

CLOWN MUSIC today somebody discovered in the code that Tweetdeck would be paywalled as well, plus with a new, barely usable interface (for my purpose at least). Bye bye step 1

Did I mention this is the only way you can access Collections, API set aside ? Farewell step 2

So yeah basically pretty soon until I can't find volo art, even less curate it. Oh I can still RT it automatically (via unauthorised means). Except if I pay. This is fucked up and I am angry and fed up :)

TL;DR clown in chief is a bitch (nothing new) paywalling everything, and it may lead to the death of the Twitter account. Great.

Anyway I'm very thankful to be on Tumblr <3 It's really a nice place to be, I have no work to do and can just lay back and enjoy the content :) it's also way easier to interact with you all, I love reading your funny funny tags !! Love you ✨

Hi Esu!! ♥♥♥ It's an honor to be your first anon😳 idk why people haven't signed up to be an anon of yours before me 😩 but you totally deserve it !!! They're missing out on your sweetness ✨

"eSU EXISTS-" 💨💨💨 here i am 🦸typing this ask also im makin some text small bc the ask will take up so much space in normal size :D

I couldn't agree less on what you said on comforting someone 😔 because either i get annoyed with them for being emotional or sweatdrop intensely trying to think what should i do lmao 😭 you're so courageous for even offering an hug 😳 brain-wrecking moment is when it's you and just the other person then they started to get emotional 😷 "wha- what do i even do with you??🧍����🧍 Do i vacuum your problems out of you??" First instinct of mine too is to think of some (unhelpful) advice/solution,,,

I rlly like how you express yourself fully with memes♥️♥️♥️ like how i do with emojis/emoticons bc with my serious personality id straight up look rude without the ":D” stuff🥴 Can i please buy one ticket to Esu's Museum? ✨🎫

it very shocking to me that you dont like pink xD and more like, it's counterparts (brown and blue) 🤯🤯 for pink,,, i like the color of the uno card you sent but like the HOT HOT kind of pink is really smth i despise 😤 so it would depend on the shade or combinations of the color(s) f i like it or not— bUT i actually still like cakes if im gonna pick what dessert id like to eat <3 it's not so sweet most of the time <33

AND HIGH FIVE !! 🙏🙏🙏 For some reason the 🍰 kind of cake isnt really typical around my area or idk,, country?? There must be some but maybe in the more big-city cafe parts 😔💔 it's just too fancy for some reason BUT ESU, IMAGINE THIS: us meeting up to buy our first ever fancy strawberry shortcake and eat it together 🤯💝✨ we're like,,, gonna meet up in our imagination and taste the cake in our imagination too—

I could read the text clearly too!! So i appreciate you changing it into a more visible color :DD ALSO!!! I've been meaning to ask you if you have plans to change your desktop theme into something (like the codes stuff) bc idk if you're interested in spicing up your desktop theme look into smth different 💨💨💨 but it's def understandable since fixing layouts take time 💕

If only i could send in images on anon it would be great 😩 but that's okay !! mwa also pls feel free to talk about stuff with me if you ever feel like talking abt it <3 ill do my best to listen ★~

Good luck on your fic too 💪💪💪 it seems you're in progress of writing it and im excited 💨💨💨

Also the pink uno reverse card 💗💗💗
