Remember when Twitter gave a copy of its entire archive to the Library of Congress, so that researchers and historians would always have this unique document of what people were talking about online in the early 2000s?

Time to use old school web scrapers and remind Elon why most companies provide API access to info that is otherwise available on their browser applications

People need to move to Mastodon fast. Twitter is finished. It's over.

@melroy Yes it does which's amazing but some people like just having a Twitter alternative that is pretty close to what Twitter is, I don't believe Mbin has an API so that Mobile Apps, sure I prefer Mbin / Kbin but unless you like the idea of a Hybrid between Twitter and Reddit then not everyone wants to go for it. Also, Mobile Apps help a lot as most people access the internet though there phones.

Mbin is a fork of /kbin, created by the community for the community. Because the development of kbin became to a halt.

I’m sorry, I still don’t understand how to find more information about it.

Edit: the link was not in the response I replied to here when I replied…makes sense now.

Are you familiar with kbin? If so what about the concept of "forking" software?

I am, and one reply to me added a link and another said it was a fork because of lack of development on kbin.

I’m all caught up now, thank you :)
