For me the hardest part of making a Mastodon bot was figuring out the OAuth dance to get my access token.

Twitter offers a UI that does this for you, so I made one for Mastodon! It works on any instance, but it does require you to run a `curl` command (that it generates for you) at the very end. Hope you find it useful!

@tinysubversions Thanks for this! I tried updating @autoblake this past summer. I realized that William Blake repeats himself so much in his prophetic works and has so many run-on sentences that it was difficult for Markov-Tweet to properly end the strings at 140 characters. Maybe Mastodon's larger character set will create something interesting!
