As I’m not using it actively for months and want to stop using it, I want to delete my Twitter account. However I still have one use-case that prevents me doing that. My city local police is sending some traffic related news only on Twitter and I use the notification functionality of Twitter official client to be informed as soon as they post something.

I have tested some open source Twitter client which works pretty well for looking at content in my opinion but none of them have the capacity to push a notification when a post is done in a specific followed account.

Do you have some recommendations (it would be best if it’s open source but I’m not completely closed to “free as in free beer” alternatives) ?

Thanks.

    I don’t think theres an option which pushes notifications (as usual I reserve the right to be wrong!). Quacker & Fritter allow you to follow people without the need to sign in or even have a Twitter account. Fritter currently seems to be broken. Quacker is alive & quacking
