Literally the only thing keeping me on Twitter is that I want notifications from my sports team, as well as the local sports reporter who covers them. I used to be able to have their tweets come through an RSS reader, but since Elon’s nuking of API access that no longer works :(
On mastodon, someone created a bot that can mirror anyone’s tweets. Just take their Twitter handle and append “@bird.makeup”. There’s a little jank, but it made the switch a lot easier for me.
There’s another one that does specific sports-related accounts under sportsbots.xyz and works very well.

The only reason I still have the Twitter app is because that’s where my Nintendo switch upload screenshots and videos.
