@sun@j >Please just give me a a websocket that streams raw ActivityPub objects addressed to me. That would help on some but not all issues. Btw, you very likely already know this, but Mastodon API supports streaming timelines and notifications over websockets. Pleroma does support this API, but that's probably all the fedi servers that bothered with it. So if you want the bot to be more or less portable, it's probably not a great choice and it's not raw AP objects I think.
@kirby@charlie_root I didn't hop through many instances. My first account was on KF and I stayed there for a year basically only lurking and never posting anything meaningful (mostly drunk posting). I think I had like 15 posts total after a year. Then I stopped using all social media, deleted the account and a month or two later DropKiwiFarms started, leaving the instance dead to this day.
A year went by and I wanted to self-host my own git, Invidious and Searx instances. And that's how FluffyTail became a thing. The domain name is a reference to Fedi's obsession with anything that has a fluffy tail and a few months later Pleroma was just something I could put on the SLD not leaving it unused.
As much as people liked to trash on the KF instance, it was kinda great when you ignored a few bad apples. It had a good culture and many good posters. I also miss Steve Jail and his constant sperging. His Opphunter88 return was shortlived and now he's a Minds user I think.
@snacks@anemone@lucy Maybe set up media caching on the Hetzner edge, if you don't already. That might ease a lot of the traffic away from your connection.
@grips He deleted everything he could, bought a new domain for bsky, deleted bsky few days later, created a GTS instance as a "write-only" devblog and was completely silent until now.
As expected from attention seeking addicts like him, he immediately had to jump on the first drama he saw.
I was honestly looking forward to the FOSDEM livestream and seeing him getting carried away by security, but the organizers seemingly canceled the talk.
@lucy@anemone@snacks@twinspin6 feld had it almost working. Theoretically it's possible, but one or two libraries Pleroma uses would have to be replaced. One of which is cachex, if I remember correctly.
