Brony Retweets 2.0 · 8:54pm Nov 15th, 2023

Up until last year, there used to be a special account on Twitter that retweeted tweets by pony artists and other pony creators and tweets about ponies and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic in general. This account was known as Brony Retweets, a bot account with the goal to promote smaller pony creators on Twitter and to make pony tweets easier to discover.
Last year in November, the owner of this account, MikeBrony, stopped operating the bot and abandoned the Pony Twitter Community. I was pinging him several times on Twitter and even sent him a message here, to inquire if or when Brony Retweets will return. He read my message, but never responded. When it was clear that he abandoned the account and the community, I decided to bring Brony Retweets back myself. And now, that moment has come.
Yesterday, I created a new Brony Retweets account on Twitter. Unlike the old account run by MikeBrony, I am doing manual retweets, because I don't know how to code and run a bot (yet) and because my current computer would probably not be able to run a Twitter bot, either. But the rest is the same and it operates on the same idea:

Making smaller pony creators easier seen on Twitter and helping them to gain an audience.

To make that happen, the account needs a lot of followers, it starts completely at zero and has a long way to go until it reaches the number of 4,000+ followers that the original Brony Retweets had. I retweet a few tweets roughly every hour, minus the time when I need sleep, and I focus on lesser known pony artists and creators with potential who have fewer than 1,000 followers.
I want this account to be a helpful resource for every pony creator on Twitter who struggles with gaining an audience and finding followers.

If you are active on Twitter, please follow Brony Retweets 2.0 and retweet its pinned tweet. And even if you don't have a Twitter account or are not active there anymore, please spread the word about it where you can, you will help all small pony creators on Twitter with that:
