Hey!
Wow. Your tool looks amazing. And simple enough. Even though I don't like bash coding very much, but perhaps I could wrap it all into python functions?
ONLY if you find the time, please give this a quick read.
IF NOT, just close this issue. Then sorry to have bothered you.
I would like to automate these three tasks:
(1) follow-when-retweeted
When someone retweets one of my retweets, I would like to automatically follow them, and put them in a list, for later manual inspection (whether to mute them or even unfollow again, always needs visual inspection). Of course, it makes sense to first check whether I am already following them anyways.
(2) unfollow-wait-and-follow-again
Intention: To send them a trigger to check me out (again).
Condition on accounts:
I am following them, but they do not follow me back yet.
They are not in a (manual) blacklist of accounts that I do want want to bother with this.
Steps:
1) Find all above accounts.
2) one by one: Unfollow. Wait a minute or a day. Follow them again.
3) after 3 days, check whether that was successful.
Perhaps the twitter API has a daily quota for stuff like that? Then have the script end in a way that the remaining batch can be done on the next day.
(3) retweet my own tweets
Reason: I am awake while the main group of my followers is sleeping.
Intention: Give more people a chance to see a "best of" my recent tweets.
Steps:
1) I compile a list of (e.g. a dozen, or a hundred) of my own tweet URLs.
2) one by one: (possibly undo the retweet, then) retweet the tweet.
3) there should be e.g. an hour between those retweets, perhaps two retweets at at time.
Detail: I want retweets without additional comment, so no new tweet is created.
Questions:
Are you aware of any twitter tools which do exactly that already? That would save me time.
Did you have any hints for me, while reading the above?
