Twitter Proofs- please allow us to put this in our profile rather that only the stream. (For private feeds/ tweetdelete.net) #98

I am moving this request from the client issues tracker.

I have a private twitter feed, so I tried putting the proof into the twitter profile (visible on the twitter.com/@user page). That should be recognized as well as it being in the feed, but it isn't.

(I did try changing my privacy setting to public, tweeting the proof, doing the verification (which worked), and then returning to private; but once I did the latter the proof broke.)

Note that another user is using tweetdelete.net to delete his tweets after 10 days, which forces him to redo his proof every 10 days.

Please allow this feature. I use Twitter the way that every tweet that I post gets deleted after 10 days. That happens automatically, through www.tweetdelete.net, so I must also prove my Twitter identity on Keybase every 10 days. If we're allowed to put Twitter Proofs in Twitter profile I wouldn't have to do that.

I have two possible workarounds:

  1. This is a really nice (manual) way to delete tweets. I quite like this application, personally: https://martani.github.io/Twitter-Archive-Eraser/

  2. I actually found this last night. This tweet delete method deletes tweets older than x time, but allows you to specify to, for example, not delete tweets that you favorite/like. So you would just have to remember to like your own tweet if you don't want it deleted (should be pretty easy to remember to do that for something like a keybase proof) https://github.com/codl/forget
