@titociuro as long as people say “I wouldn’t bet against Elon” he can keep setting ambitious goals and keep getting investment.

Nice work if you can get it.

It's meant to stream from all sources simultaneously for e.g. 1 hour each day and compare how many different account DIDs it has seen from each: https://pulsar.feeds.blue
