 Connect.nos.social works for posting from nostr to twitter (x) 
 👀

Is a twitter account required? 

Can I chat with twtr users? 

Can I see or follow a particular twitter account via nostr? 
 It just posts nostr content to twitter. It’s not as good mostr.pub which is a full two way gateway between nostr and the fediverse.  
 Does it post to the nos social account? 
 No it posts your notes from nostr to your twitter account.  
 Oui 
 D'ailleurs il y a plusieurs nostriches qui ont leurs comptes sur X, et créent autant de comptes sur nostr éphémères pour booster des notes, critiquent ces autres plateformes.. et ceux-là sont la plupart des adeptes du Bitcoin dont l'objectif est de vendre du Bitcoin (propositions de gains souvent illégales à tendances frauduleuses..) tout en critiquant ceux comme Ftx  (Sam..),  
 will give it a try, thanks! 
 It’s funny that Seth has tried to stir up the Nostrich nest and all he’s actually done is show that he doesn’t know what’s been happening here or why people have stuck around on nostr.

Massive self-own. 
 Ego. That seems to be the originator. 

Folks concerned more about their engagement numbers than the fundamentals of what the protocol and/or [enter freedom tech service here] have to offer for the betterment of society. 

Previous example being Archie from Bitcoin Archive. Dopamine from likes is a helluva drug. 
 🎯 
 this really makes sense if we want people to smoothly transition from x to nostr, and really "own" their followers

i have been considering starting something similar. @rabble are you the author? would you be interested in chatting? 
 I didn’t write the code but i was involved. Happy to chat. 

Here’s the source: https://github.com/planetary-social/nos-crossposting-service 
 Does it work with other social platforms/apps too?! 
 The idea is to support other platforms. It’s open source so we can do it together.

 It's a good idea, saves time. Including more social platform or apps will be even better. 
 Do I have to keep Connect.nos.social webpage active each time when I want to get my Nostr notes posted on my Twitter account?! Will there be a "connect.nos.social" tab on the sidebar or settings of nos.social app?!
