I made a private twitter, with goal of less filter. Feel free to request to follow, but because there's a lot of you it's hard to sort; please comment with a link to a highly reasonable tweet you've made in response to me, dated before this tweet. https://twitter.com/AellaPrivate

as i've been saying to other people i'd like to approve you but there's no way for me to filter or search in the thousands of requests so idk how to find you. If i do i'll accept you but no promises

no worries! i am a fellow hater of malfunctioning technology. if I am reading the docs right, it looks like you might be able to get a list of all follow requests through the twitter API (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/accounts-and-users/follow-search-get-users/api-reference/get-friendships-incoming …). if i am right, I might be able to help set up a script for you.

I don't see anything in the API about approving follow requests, though it seems like you could _follow_ the people requesting to follow you which might have the same effect (except now you follow them).

And i now realize the latter point is really your problem to begin with since you don't actually need to see all requests, just approve specific ones. Darn. I suspect you might be able to hack about in the js console and mimic what the actual website does, but that's trickier.

It does not allow them to follow me if I follow them, no I tried that
