Wow, this is something I did not know I wanted. After having left Twitter a while I find myself missing some of the tweets from the more interesting people I followed.

I mainly stopped using Twitter because of the ads, slowly ruining third party clients (Tweetbot was what I used), and the tracking.

Thanks for sharing this!

Why not use rss-bridge[1] to make a rss feed for you twitter needs ? There are several public instances that allow you to do exactly that.

This is something I definitely wanted and didn't know about. Thanks!
