Here it is folks, a work in progress v1 of Nostr Birdsite Bridge!

It scans the people you follow on Twitter and then generates Nostr profiles that mirror their posts, so you can follow them right from your favorite Nostr client!

In essence, it turns Twitter into somewhat of another big relay for Nostr. #[0] #[1] :)

Note: for the meantime I've limited it to the first 200 Twitter profiles while I work out the kinks, and to not hammer #[2] 's relay all at once.

If you don't see any profiles showing up, try refreshing the page and scanning again, there are occasional CORS issues.

Can you link the source?

Nice. Is there a list of bridged users so far?

Yup, you can find the full list so far here: https://rsslay.nostr.moe/

This could be a great solution to follow people when you are banned from Twitter

Nice solution. This will help some transition away from the blue bird app to the purple bird protocol.

Brilliant! I’ve been trying to build the same thing, so glad I can stop trying now 😂 Thank you! Zapping you some sats 🧡

Much appreciated!

Awesome thx!

I did the process, then I clicked to see a profile, but no info appear, for example this one: https://snort.social/p/npub1m7k7s5rmx6kech76gy5qceqtdzlp7ph704gc8j7nlc7v3x305pjq3c9ayp

you have to add this relay to your client to see it:

wss://rsslay.nostr.moe

I added it. Do you think is ok profile be empty without profile icons and old posts? Or only new posts will appear?

Profile pic sometimes takes a bit to be pulled in, and it generally only pulls in more recent posts, doesn’t go super far back.

Both of which have mostly to do with how Nitter generates rss feeds for twitter profiles.

Understood. But I have the relay ok on snort.social and I clicked on my profiles generated and I don't see any info. I don't know the reason.

⚡️🤙🏻

Awesome work!! Thank you! I’m scaling the relay to keep everything ok 🤙

Let me know if you have performance issues

Thank you as well! and apologies for any heavy server load this may bring to the relay, I’m working on follow up improvements to try to minimize the amount of traffic to it.

No worries 🤙

Looks like the links that the bot accounts produce for Nitter have http but nitter.moomoo.me uses https so the links don’t work. Otherwise this is amazing, my nostr feed now has all my fav Bitcoiners tweets! :)

Hmmm I will take that into account for other feeds as well when creating a feed 👍

Ahh good catch, that was a mistake on my end i believe. Nitter still redirects to the https link when clicking it thankfully.

Awesome! Just sent you some sats. Thanks!

Thanks 🤙

This might help with that 🙂

Took some inspiration from #[0] ’s recent improvements to rsslay!

You now have direct links to the nostr profiles created for your Twitter friends on Snort, Iris, Astral, and a link that opens up the profile in Damus directly!

Thanks! Very great, used in combination with https://nostr.directory/

For the newer nostr users who haven’t come across this tool yet
