A while ago, Threader died, and about the only alternatives back then seemed to be ThreadReaderApp and Archive Today: Threader is dying: save your content as soon as possible:
The alternatives [Archive] @ThreadReaderApp, [Archive] @WayBackMachine and [Archive] @ArchiveIs for the win (:
In the end that’s not completely true, though they do seem to be the only places where that can be triggered without tweeting a kind of “unroll” response to a thread-to-be-archived.
There are more of the latter kind that were active at the end of 2021 when I queued this post:
- [Archive] UnrollThread (@UnrollThread) / Twitter
- [Archive] PingThread (@PingThread) / Twitter
- [Archive] ThreadUnroll (@ThreadUnroll0) / Twitter
- [Archive] “@threadrip unroll” (@threadRip) / Twitter
This one died a silent death somewhere fall 2020:
This one is registered, but does not reply with unrolls:
A repository I want to check out later: [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – the-crib/thread-unroll: Unrolls twitter thread and sends it as a DM to anyone that mentions the bot on the thread.
Finally, some of the helper accounts that ThreadReaderApp uses:
- [Archive] Thread Reader Unroll Helper R2D2 (@D2Unroll) / Twitter
- [Archive] Thread Reader Unroll Helper (@UnrollHelper) / Twitter
- [Archive] Thread Unroll Bot ID (@numpangunroll) / Twitter
