People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

I haven't actually done this, I was just brainstorming. It shouldn't be too hard of a project, though. The easiest would just be an esp32 chip, limit switch, and small battery and power circuit.
You position the switch were the deadbolt latch hits it in the open or closed position (I'd do open personally). Using esphome with homeassistant would make programming it a breeze.
You'd need to figure out a housing, which is why I wish there was an off the shelf product. I might design one eventually, but it shouldn't be a huge lift for anyone who is familiar with 3d modeling.
