Since I'm seeing a new wave of people saying they plan to leave Twitter, you may like my browser tool that takes the zip file of your Twitter export and returns a zip file of a web site that lets people browse and search your tweets. You can just upload the files wherever you normally host html and it'll work just fine.

Twitter archiver

A simple, searchable, themeable archive of your public tweets

@darius freakin’ fantastic… but my Twitter archive is around 60gb. Any way to run this tool locally?

@genecowan it's local. There's no upload. If you read the page it explains this

@darius Ah, I misread it. So, still, I guess I’m out of luck thanks to the limitations. 🤦🏻‍♂️

@genecowan @darius is the source available? might it be possible to make a version that runs on the commandline to overcome these limitations if someone had time and energy to contribute?

@petrichor it is client side javascript, I don't know if there are limitations. The link to the static site source is at the top of the page: https://github.com/dariusk/twitter-archiver

@edsu ah, thanks, I missed that. yes, there are browser imposed limitations on the size of archive it can process

@petrichor oh, what are the limits?

@edsu from further down the page:

@petrichor oh, right. I wonder if running it in Node will help.
