Prompted by https://sovereigntechfund.de/ I've started looking into this tool. It's powered by Python, Django, Wagtail, which I use and love. And it sounds like something that would be quite useful to Prototype Fund and similar initiatives.

:wave: @florihas are you interested in this app? By the way, do you know what tool was used to connect the PF Twitter to Mastodon? Something like https://gitlab.com/spla/tweet2toot or https://github.com/cquest/tootbot I guess.
GitLab
spla / tweet2toot
Post to Mastodon all the tweets of the configured Twitter user account. tweet2toot will replicate all tweets and threads of the Twitter user of your choice.

I think it's funny that ActivityPub has done more decentralization with a few million in total funding versus what blockchain did with tens of billions.
