Sorting tweets by user/regex/list

I got tired of the cognitive dissonance involved in reading twitter -- topics kept jumping around. So, i wrote a thingy. Features: - filter by user, list, or regex - each group you filter to has its own "mark as complete" button (so you don't have to read everything in one sitting, but can still be a completionist eventually). - tries to do inline images with a lightbox - tries to be compact - first time users, can have it auto-gen a config fore you - config is a multi-line text block so super-powerful but not UX friendly Drawbacks: - does save your configuration in a db in the cloud so not…

    Repo: https://github.com/nnnkit/totem Bookmarking a tweet/article/thread on X is one click, but actually reading it later is like five clicks — open X, dig into history, bookmarks, find the post, and dodge the distraction of new feeds and notifications on the way there. So I had hundreds of genuinely great tweets saved and basically never read any of them. Totem puts that queue on the browser new tab, so reading them is just one click away.
