Oh, yay, this is literally all the UK was missing right now. https://eupolicy.social/@1br0wn/113508406414961929

Morphology matters.

@jupiter_rowland Ah, sorry, for some reason I thought you’d made Forte. My bad. Need coffee.

@jupiter_rowland Forte sounds great, by the way (just looked at https://github.com/kaangiray26/forte)

@jupiter_rowland Yeah, this is a tiny little app for a very specific purpose and I don’t have time to make it any more than it is. But please do feel free to fork/change/expand it :)

@davido1975 Aww, David, what a lovely message to open the fediverse to. Thank you so much; your words mean a lot and don’t worry, I’ll be keeping at it; I don’t know how to be any other way :)

@chris Yeah, it was just more effort than it was worth and no one was using it. Strong agree on BTC and anything that’s proof of work (proof of waste). No, thank you :)

Umm, so I just checked the Ethereum wallet, not expecting anything, really (since we basically got next to nothing via Nano for the whole time we had it on) and… goodness… thank you so much… this is going to have a direct effect on helping me speed up dev. It really means a lot and I wasn’t expecting it at all.

@xankarn Almost like fascism really isn’t a deal breaker for neoliberals or something.

@martinus Don’t have to love one horrible president to hate another. Erdoğan is an autocrat who imprisons people who insult him and he’s very easily insulted. Last I checked Turkey had the largest number of imprisoned journalists in the world. Ask me why I can’t go back to the country of my birth.

Actually, you don’t have to ask, it was because of this speech: https://ar.al/notes/my-speech-at-general-assembly-in-berlin-november-2017/

@jwildeboer @Herman Also, they don’t delete your data after you close your account. Ask me how I know :)

(Yeah, I set the Irish DPO on them. They basically said “can’t do” and the Irish DPO just shrugged.)

TIL that some Mastodon servers require authentication even to get a public post by API.

Oh well, more error checking code it is, then :)

@frelsisbaratta That’s very kind of you; thank you, will do :)

@matty No, it’s a curated stream of Mastodon posts. You add links to posts and it streams them in a loop. So you can consume it when making a WebSocket demo or just get the public timeline for a HTTP call/JSON demo. Useful when teaching web dev, for example.

But what you describe wouldn’t be difficult to build with Kitten (https://kitten.small-web.org/).

(Streamiverse is built with Kitten and is very simple.)

Coming soon… Streamiverse.

A curated streaming fediverse post API compatible with the Mastodon API for use in teaching, demos, presenting, etc. Basically, if you were using the Mastodon public timeline API for these use cases before it started to require authentication, this will be a good alternative :)

If you have suggestions for the curated feed, reply to this with links to posts.

@harald Hey Harald, thanks so much. It’s really more the time I’m going to have to spend more than anything else. I think we’re ok for now, but appreciate the offer :)

@frelsisbaratta Thanks so much, appreciate it. But it’s really more the time than anything else. I’ll definitely keep your kind offer in mind but we should be fine for the time being :)
