Yes in theory it _could_ be, however we (the development team behind Twt.social) are not very strongly open to this idea. It is a different design model in our opinion and whilst we _could_ make it works we'd go down the route of micro.Blog (if we decided to integrate with the Fediverse) where the functionality/integration is limited.

There are certain advantages to having a Web-based pull non-realtime model. For example it limits abuse and excessive noise.

We also do not support "Push Notifications" either for the same reasons, but also because we believe "Social Media" should be distraction free (notifications belong to instant messaging).

To truly understand the goals we've set out, you have to think about how Facebook™ and Twitter™ (and their clones) fundamentally work where so many complex algorithms create these "echo chambers", inherent biases and social silos. Worse many use the data to profit from.

We want none of that :)
