# Fuck off, @twitter ![Build](https://github.com/cuducos/fuckoff-twitter/workflows/Build/badge.svg)

This tiny script automated that for me:

> I'm sorry dear followers, but every time [@twitter](https://twitter.com/twitter) makes me re-select "latest tweet" I'm gonna tweet that over and over again (and I do encourage you to do the same; I promise my support in the form of RTs): https://t.co/yIpedfHvIc

## Usage

1. Create an app and get your API keys from [Twitter's Developer platform]([https://developer.twitter.com/](https://developer.twitter.com/))

2. Create environment variables as described in `.env.sample`

    1. The `TWEET` variable is the text you want to tweet when this script runs

    1. **Optionally**, if you want this tweet to be a reply for a given tweet, add the status ID number of that given tweet into `REPLY_TO` (otherwise just ignore it)

3. [Download the executablel](https://github.com/cuducos/fuckoff-twitter/releases/tag/latest) for Linux, macOS or Windows and run it!

For example, these last two settings look like that in my case:

```

TWEET=Fuck off @twitter, let me have "latest tweets" as a default.

REPLY_TO=1197153914916888579

```

## Development & contributing

Requires [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/) with `cargo`:

```console

$ cargo run

https://twitter.com/cuducos/status/1194269206419775488

```

This will be the URL for your fresh new tweet!
