Utilizing Python to Streamline Social Media Interactions

personal

In recent months, I've been building a social media aggregation platform using the Windsurf AI IDE. The platform displays a multimedia timeline that pulls content from Mastodon, Bluesky, Sharkey, Nostr, and Micro.blog. The goal was to centralize my social media interactions in one location instead of checking multiple sites.

Developed in Python using AI coding assistants (Claude and ChatGPT 5.2 High Reasoning) to accelerate development, I designed the platform structure and verified the implementation through testing. The screenshot shows the current interface. Some posts appear duplicated because I follow the same people across multiple platforms.

A screenshot of a social media dashboard interface titled "Personal Events Poster" showing a post from "The Starship Entity ✨ 2025" about NASA's Moon Mission Plume-Surface Interaction Tests. The post includes a link to a NASA article and a thumbnail of a video featuring a spacecraft engine test setup. Below this post are comments from other users discussing unrelated topics.

NASA's latest technology captures the dynamic interaction of the Firefly Aerospace Blue Ghost Mission-1 lander's engine plumes with the lunar surface.

The platform works well and I appreciate having one central location to read and respond to posts. There are occasional bugs to fix and a few features left to implement, but it serves its purpose.
