Install Corebird 1.3 on Linux Mint 18 'Sarah' and Ubuntu 16.04 'Xenial Xerus' Derivatives
Corebird is an open source and completely free graphical application written in GTK+ for GNU/Linux systems, designed from the ground up to act as a native client for the amazing and widely used Twitter social networking service.
Allows users to easily switch between multiple accounts
Each tweet can be double-clicked to view more information about it, such as how many retweets and favorites it got, the date and time it was sent, the program used for sending the tweet, as well as its source, which can be opened with your default web browser. From the main window, you will be able to easily switch between multiple accounts, compose a new tweet, minimize, maximize and close the main window, as well as to access the app’s settings.
The application presents users with a modern and attractive graphical user interface that displays all the tweets from all of the user’s followers at a glance. A minimalist sidebar will ensure that you easily navigate between Home, Mentions, Favorites, Direct Messages, Lists, Filters and Search.
Hovering a tweet will display the retweet, favorite and reply buttons. The last buttom will allow you to retweet by quoting or view details about the tweet (similar to the double-click on tweet function explained above).
