This solves issue #2636.

I have updated the links in the sidebars to the official Python Software Foundation (PSF) Twitter account (twitter.com/thespf), which is currently active and better represents the official social media presence for Python. This ensures that the sidebar links now lead to more relevant, up-to-date resources for users.

Thanks for the PR! I know it's confusing but box data is actually controlled via Django Admin and the fixture data is just exports of that for easy bootstrapping of development environments; this means that your PR would have no effect :\

We could make the relevant changes at boxes/box/40/change/ though depending on what @ewdurbin thinks.

The box is specifically about Python Insider so I suggest removing the old Twitter link.

Another option is to replace it with something else. It's easy to hook up an RSS feed to Mastodon using https://feedsin.space

I used it for @peps and @python_releases and it would be good to do one for Insider too.

Updating the boxes fixture in addition to making the change in Django admin for prod is a good way of documenting what's changed. So if we settle on a correct solution here, update the box in admin then merge the PR.
