twitter-to-bsky importer

Import your Twitter archive into a Bluesky account.

! ! !

At this time, this will spam others timelines, so it is only recommended to run on new accounts with no followers. See Known problems below for details.

! ! !

Usage:

# Get an archive from https://twitter.com/settings/download_your_data
# Unzip a Twitter archive so the assets/ folder is in the same directory as main.py
export BSKY_USERNAME="yourname.bsky.social"
export PASSWORD="yourpassword"
pip install atprototools==0.0.6
python main.py

Known problems

Bluesky's UI currently renders timestamps based on the indexedAt field (i.e., when the skoot was skooted) rather than the createdAt field (when the skoot CLAIMS it was skooted).

The code here currently tries to post skoots with the old timestamps, but the Bluesky UI will not render them so. It used to, and then Paul probably patched the bug ^^

Does not preserve replies, so your threads will be decomposed into de-contextualized individual posts.

Does not convert links in the text of tweets.
