Are you a scientist using both #Twitter and #Mastodon? Did you notice on Twitter an interesting #science-related thread that deserves to be shared here on Mastodon? Simply reply "Send to @ScienceToots" to the last tweet of the Twitter thread, and my bot will do the work! 1/

The thread will be posted here by the bot called @sciencetoots (follow him!). It will contain a link to the original tweet, as well as the images attached. I haven't tested it in all possible scenarios, but I hope it will work 😀 2/

Technically speaking, it's a Python script that uses Tweepy for reading the public tweets, and Toot for sending toots to Mastodon. Since it's my first bot, feel free to report bugs or suggest improvements!

@emmecola I just tried and it works for me. Thanks a lot it's a very nice tool.

@JulienDelpierre
I'm happy that it worked! Sometimes the threads get truncated, I need to investigate the cause 🙂
