Description

I got an email saying the following.
Hi, ashtonjb, your attempted twitter identity proof of @ashtonjb never succeeded. We've been checking it repeatedly, and from our perspective, it's either (a) not there, or (b) not posted precisely.

I signed in to Twitter and I have a post there.

Verifying myself: I am ashtonjb on Keybase.io. hWMTtoWFgDV1xSlhbN-3AI8A8U1tWA3zgO6q / keybase.io/ashtonjb/sigs/…

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Twitter identity-proof check using the reported @ashtonjb post and the exact verification text shown in the issue. Trace the Keybase Twitter-proof verification path and compare its expected post format with the reported post; done means a correctly formatted proof is accepted without the failure email.
