@ayo I mean if you serve all your assets and HTML via CDN, you shouldn't notice server load ๐Ÿคท

@ayo Feels like the public roadmap is for one not clear enough and sometimes not well prioritized.

Working on quote posts rather than these critical DDoS issues, or moderation tools seems wrong to me.

๐ŸŽ‰ Project /threads now live!

๐Ÿ”— https://ayco.io/threads -- a way to select social posts and (in the future) offer fine-grained topical subscriptions.

Depending on your requirements & resources, you can also have your own threads deployed on your site, either of the two options

  • personal.site/threads
  • threads.personal.site

This is the first of some tiny self-hostable apps I plan to work on, that can be composed together.

@ayo Interesting! Since you already self-host your Mastodon instance, seems a bit redundant ๐Ÿค”

Look at this cute little thing ๐Ÿคฉ

It emulates a dozen consoles with hundreds of games (already included).

Will start by rocking some old Pokemon games :ablobcatbongo:

If you're interested, it's called: ANBERNIC RG35XX Plus.

Do they usually work out, or are they always 15 min? ๐Ÿ˜

@ayo Such a coincidence I just arrived at my hotel (Fukushima) and a woman was playing at it while stepping into the elevator.

I could never be hooked to it. Back when it started the combat mechanic was so bad. Not sure if that has changed.

Manga is ridiculously cheap (around 2โ‚ฌ per regular volume)

If only I could read Japanese ๐Ÿ˜‚

@vascorsd it's a very valid question, thought the same thing.

I think it would take a huge effort though. It doesn't seem worth it just to read manga.

I really enjoy following @ricard and how he organized all his web stuff. A good example of โ€œowning your contentโ€. I learned a lot from his blogs on #mastoAdmin stuff and he posts a lot about his #hobbies. Inspiring stuff! #followFriday

So I regularly run "tootctl statuses remove" on my self-hosted Mastodon server.

Still, I somehow have 1,344,736 statuses in my DB. Any tips how to clean things up?

Ideally I'd like to run something like:

tootctl statuses remove --days=90 --include-follows

@stefan I'd also be interested ๐Ÿ’ก

I wrote this but wondering if maybe there are more commands that we could add to it to keep it extra lean:
