If you are on Twitter and want to find people who have opened accounts over here, someone made a little tool that scrapes Fediverse handles (and email addresses, since a lot of people drop the leading @) from the Twitter bios and display names of people you follow over there

Fediverse accounts of your X/Twitter followings

@darius Now that I have a CSV, how do I import it into Mastodon?
Show threadTorsten KathkeOct 30, 2022
@eribosot @darius on the website there’s an import/export data section on your account

@torstenkathke @darius Found it! I have the patience of a chihuahua.

@darius That’s very cool. Thanks for sharing!

@darius That’s an awesome tool.
Show threadShredderfeederOct 30, 2022
@darius is there a way to bulk import connections?
Show threadDarius KazemiOct 30, 2022
@Shredderfeeder if you download the csv from the tool you can import it in your account settings
Show threadShredderfeederOct 31, 2022
@darius Awesome, thanks.

@darius Thanks, got it. Apparently I'm just horrifically unpopular. ;-)

@darius Thanks this is really useful.

@darius I've been looking for something like this, but ideally a CLI so that I don''t have to trust that no one else is snooping around in parts of my twitter account that I try to keep private.

With this source, it seems I have a great start at writing the version of the tool that I've been looking for. Thanks for writing and sharing!

@darius Me at first: "OH COOL!" Me after running the tool: *Sad trombone* no results. DAMMIT COME OVER, FRIENDS!
Show threadRed RabbitOct 31, 2022
@HeathAllyn @darius it only finds people who have also used the tool :) that’s how it knows who is who. If you check it again after a friend of yours used it it show them
Show threadDarius KazemiOct 31, 2022
@harrym @HeathAllyn that's not correct. It parses profile info for text in the format @[email protected]
Show threadRed RabbitOct 31, 2022
@darius @HeathAllyn May have been a similar tool I was thinking of, so you’re saying it takes the email from both to compare?
Show threadCoprolite9000Oct 30, 2022

@darius It found a couple of people for me - thank you!

(I'll run it again in a week or so...)
