For a brief bit I had a simple python script dump tweets into a .plan file mostly just to amuse myself by connecting new social media to old.

Hmm, I wonder if I ask my Mastodon host nicely if they'd open up finger protocol support, lol. (ETA: Reminds one of the old adage about blind men touching the elephant.)
