Deedy's Best Tweets

Twitter/X is the de facto outlet for my thoughts. Facebook is dead. Instagram is for pictures. TikTok is for video. Youtube is high-effort. Reddit opinions aren’t backed by legitmacy. Blogs are too long. Unfortunately, Twitter is ephemeral and doesn’t allow users to capture all their best hits over time.

I used their API (and now their archive downloader) to mine a list offline. I tweet about tech, AI, business, immigration, India, humor and fitness. I’ve tried to tweet once a day since early 2020. I also vibe coded an interactive version of all my tweets with topic labels here.

This list was last updated Nov 15, 2025 with approx ~219K followers and originally published on Aug 15, 2022. You can find a live version of this list here: [(from:deedydas OR from:debarghya_das) min_faves:100 -filter:replies], but it does drop posts. I update this list manually.
