SUCH a cool experiment out of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab: https://archive.social

Allows you to capture a thread from Twitter and archive it in sealed PDFs to attest to legitimacy.

Could be enormously useful to journalists, archivists, etc, particularly with Twitter facing a perilous future.

Save Your Threads

High-fidelity capture of Twitter threads as sealed PDFs on social.perma.cc. An experiment of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab.

@molly0xfff people interested in this stuff might be able to play with something like the Free Time Stamp Authority and Nitter. Not as trustworthy as attesting to content on twitter obviously (best it can do is attest to what's on "nitter.net" or another instance) and the output is kind of funky, but it has the benefit of open-access.

Free Time Stamp Authority

@molly0xfff (the Time Stamp Authority doesn't have a headless browser so of course it's powerless against SPAs like Twitter)
