Truth Social added Bluesky-like custom feeds. Except they're hardcoded and there's only two options.

It looks the same on Twitter with its For You and Following (chronologic) feeds except Twitter displays pinned lists next to them. Oh, I guess TS doesn't have lists.

Good news: I just improved right-to-left support in Soapbox. Now whether you speak Arabic or Hebrew, you can find it easier to argue online.

Israel is wrecking my database right now. Or Palestine, not sure.

Seahorse is NOT a fish. Actually, I'm wrong.

Coders think the goal is to avoid bugs, but bugs can't be avoided. Embrace bugs. Roundhouse kick bugs. What's more important than avoiding bugs is having the ability to identify and fix bugs. If you don't have the tools to locate bugs, you will get stuck. But if you use Deno with the Chrome Inspector you will become God.

I love the way my code looks sometimes.

I'm running into the same performance issues on Ditto that Pleroma has with StatusView. Namely that to render a status we have to get a full account object, 3 stats on the account, and 3 stats on the status. Quotes and reposts add an extra layer of struggle. We can't cache these entities because of the stats, so to cache we have to break them into smaller pieces, cache those, and then recombine in the response. This is exactly what I plan to do.

I am also thinking about custom database implementations. If I decide to break it into separate pieces again, the choice will be among Nostr relay implementations and not actual databases like Postgres. A relay could use Postgres, but Ditto would want to speak Nostr to it. If that makes sense.

So let me get this straight. Israel sent all their guns to Ukraine. Hamas won't back down because they know this? World War Meme has gone too far.
