@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt they're perfect for the server-timing response, because i'm streaming content so I have no idea how long parts took until they're done sending

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt since http/1.1 but browsers mostly ignore them.. .

and nginx fuckin strips them

ffs, Firefox only accepts the server-timings trailer over https

and nginx does not support trailers on proxy_pass requests aaaa

ooh the Server-Timings header is a great use-case for trailers (as opposed to headers), going to experiment with this a bit

this is running in development mode, but on my homeserver which is considerably more beefy than the vps it will run on (because faster network will be more beneficial overall)

used a postgres query to find the most replied to toots (and thus hopefully largest threads) on this Mastodon instance

Happy to see my re-ordering algorithm for proper threading, and my rendering still handles them really well. Only the very largest thread took a bit more than a millisecond, everything else is <0.3 ms

Mastodon takes multiple seconds on the /context responses though yikes. Really happy with my stale double-rendering approach so you still get to see content almost instantly, while it's waiting for verification from the Mastodon server that the data is still up-to-date

meds oops 

turns out methylphenidate doesn't do much if you just leave it on your desk instead of taking it

has anyone ever done mood analysis on lastfm/librefm feeds? i dont have one but it'd be so easy to see when I'm not feeling great based on music choice lol

@tobi nothing a whole bunch of stimulants can't fix (i hope)

@jonny i guess? but we already have *two* config flags that are supposed to disallow public, unauthorized api access, so why does gargamel keep punching holes in them

@landley@mstdn.jp @Are0h what? it's about taking an active approach to moderation, so if you get a report/fediblock for one instance, see which other shitty servers they're buddy-buddy with and block those too, even though you haven't received explicit reports for *their* content yet.

you don't need reports to recognize people being shitty, i hope

time and time again these marketing-brained decisions are prioritized over user privacy and safety

Informed consent? Never heard of it!

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i

but uhh, number go up, so surely everyone wants to publicly expose more data, even with `AUTHORIZED_FETCH` and `DISALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED_API_ACCESS`

re: masto/hometown feature reminder 

@noyovo@rage.love yeah, mainline mastodon and thus glitch-soc has it too
