Gregory's ServerI can now read Mastodon conversations as proper threads on the command-line. Just as nature intended!
Some pretty simple #Python code which uses the #MastodonAPI.

  @eludom I dunno about Usenet -> Mastodon. I did think about that as well, but I think there is enough capability gaps that it'd be a rather poor and disruptive experience. Mastodon -> Usenet can work because we can just the additional info (image alt descriptions etc, CW) as text in the body of the post. @puck seems backwards. Usenet posts just text. What in Usenet would not import well? @Edent looks great! hot tip: use Textualize Rich Py package to color code those threads and message parts a bit. Make it cyberpunk hardcore! π  @Edent Let's just add a mastodon backend to neomutt so you can do it in style.  @Edent this should definitely be implemented as a feature in toot command-line tool! @Edent Next step: add local feeds to MARC ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MARC_(archive)#:~:text=MARC%20(Mailing%20list%20ARChive)%20is,volunteers%20led%20by%20Hank%20Leininger. ) and make searchable? @5SpeedFun I'm wary of archiving someone else's content without their permission. @Edent If the software exists, you know someone will do it....I mean I'd be surprised if someone doesn't, even if it's just <secret agency> of "democractic/free" country. I wonder if this is something instances should prohibit in their rules? @dutchengineer it is *so* much friendlier than Twitter's.  @mmsz "fun" fact about 80chars... |
@Edent Oh my lord. π
