    Why would it be "without Azure"? If your need is to connect to unsupported channel like Twitter, just ask for it and show what you tried / think about it, but it's not necessary to point to a "way" which may be wrong – Nicolas R Jul 06 '18 at 09:51

For unsupported channels you don't need to connect your bot through Direct Line. Twitter has a public API, so you can just create a custom Connector and then still use the BotBuilder SDK to develop bots. This way you wouldn't be going through Azure.  

Note: Read Instagram's docs on their API deprecation and see if it's applicable to you.  

An example of a custom connector for supporting LINE can be found under the botbuilder-linebot-connector.
