Not exactly what you asked for, but there's https://bird.makeup/ to
enable ActivityPub accounts to follow Xitters.  I've never used it, I
have no clue as to how reliable it is.

Fediverse doesn't seem to like bots and mirrorring accounts much, and
this is what this creates.  I don't like much that it gives Xitter more
visibility and power, but I suppose that, if a Xitter account gets a
sufficient following in the Fediverse, perhaps the maintainer of the
Xitter account can be persuaded with hard data about follower count to
start using the Fediverse as well.  And, until they do, interested
parties can at least keep up.

So please use with some care, if you do.
