I'm trying to capture the feeling of circa 2008 Twitter, where there was no pictures, no RTs (except for manually copying and pasting someone else's status), no replies (only mentions without threading, IIRC), no newlines (IIRC), and only 144 characters.

This is using my "tootme" script: https://codeberg.org/rldane/scripts/src/branch/main/tootme
