Re: [orca-list] accessible twitter client

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I did not see corebird in ubuntu repos, nor Debian ones. 
I thought I had before, but perhaps I am mistaken, was looking for 14.04 and debian 8. 
It's a pretty good alternative, but the interface is a bit inefficient when it comes to RTs and replies in my 
opinion. Messages are easy to read, and it 
has a reasonable, but not as complete a feature set as one might hope for. 
Compared with everything else I've tried however corebird is the best GUI alternative. I still find myhself 
using ttytter and bitlbee more, but having 
to check and remember tweet codes is a bit of a hassle as well, but one I'm used to. 
Thunderbird and instantbird can handle twitter, but tweets are displayed in a grid making it very slow to 
locate one's place in most cases if they get 
the hundreds of tweets a day that most users do, hundreds or thousands...lol
