After a bit of research, I learned that TWBlue is open source, and that, while the current version is only for 64-bit machines, there is a 32-bit version. There is also a 32-bit version specifically designed to work with Windows 7. Whether that's the same as the regular one, I don't know, but it does exist. However, since it has some extremely important features that TWBlue lacks, such as editing posts and profiles, etc. I prefer TweeseCake. However, it seems that there is only a 64-bit version. Am I wrong? Is it closed source? I would love to be able to work strictly from my Windows XP or 7 virtual machines, but this is the one program I must use in 11, and I ultimately find myself using 11 for everything, which I don't wish to do. I don't know of any other truly accessible clients for Friendica, other than these two.

I have no idea why the post to which I'm replying just came through my timeline,but it did. It's actually above stuff that was posted less than a day ago but anyhow. In case you didn't see my original post on this which I sent mentioning you some weeks ago, let me quote it here. "you're quite right about Tweesecake not working with 7 in the normal course. I have it working with 7 here, but only because of VXKex. If you haven't tried that, it may be worth a shot. 1/2

github.com/vxiiduu/VxKex/ I had to use an older version of VXKex, but it did work. I have used TC on 7 for a good while without issue. Be careful with this since I know there has been some posting of modified VXKex versions with malware. If you want the file I downloaded back in March, let me know. I have only used TC on a Windows 7 64 bit system, not sure about 32 bit systems, whether 7 or XP. Note that TC does have a closed source. 2/2
