#Debirdify is great! It finds #Mastodon accounts on the #Fediverse that match Twitter users I follow:
"We searched 3227 Twitter accounts and found 221 accounts with Fediverse IDs, spread over 64 instances." https://pruvisto.org/debirdify/
#MastodonSocial #MastodonMigration
Debirdify

This is a web app that helps you find out which of the people you follow on Twitter are on Mastodon/in the Fediverse already and follow all of them easily.

Received the Spotify Car Thing unit using an Amlogic S905D2 SoC so I’ll hack it to make it supported upstream. First inevitable step: hook UART lines (thanks to @nolenjohnson for the UART test points)
