After the addition I just made, my list contains 58 items, and yours contains 47. If you feel like updating. (Also, I removed one, because William Eden deleted one of his accounts.)

Step by step:

Open your chrome browser and press F12
Click on 'Scripts'
Down corner on the left, Click in the icon to "show console"
Paste the code and press enter. The page will seem to reload and the magic will happen.

By the way, thanks for the code

That was ridiculously helpful. Everybody; this works.

There is, sort of. You can create a list of people, and then other people can follow that list as a group. If people are added to the list later, you'll end up following them as well.

So, you could create a global LW list and various local LW lists, if you wanted.

Looks like you can't include yourself in a list.

I just got Twitter the other day. I edited myself into the list.

@simplic10

https://twitter.com/capsmac is my twitter account. I've made a twitter list of lesswrong members from the upper list, updated October 14, 2012

I mostly retweet stuff, largely from the above list. So I'm not sure how interesting following me would be, but I'm here.

Is Venkatesh Rao (ribbonfarm.com) a useful LW-adjacent twitter account?

If you have python you can run the following script which will subscribe your account to the aforementioned users: https://github.com/afiodorov/mass_twitter_follow
