first stabilized release of histcat https://codeberg.org/gruf/histcat
Hey there, Admin of the Internet Archive Mastodon here. I've seen some people speculate/rumor that the Archive's mastodon instance is set up to be an involuntary vacuum spot for all toots passing back into the Wayback, and it is NOT that. Any archiving of toots would be some other project (and outside my knowledge) but the Internet Archive Mastodon is just another instance, doing the mastodon thing. Communicate with us at will.
Fedi meta about defederation
Every time I see a user on another instance say "but mods/admins shouldn't defederate, users should have to block hate themselves"
I think to myself "Okay, start your own server so I can block it".
My job, a huge part of my job, is making sure my users are safe from abuse and harassment and awful content. That often means dropping entire servers for lax/no moderation and, yes, a "free speech" stance.
Defederate early, defederate often.
@doot the difference between instance admins and landlords is that instance admins actually have to work pretty hard
puzzle, regex (screenreader-unfriendly)
So, here's a regular expression (JS flavour):
^(?=( +|\t+))\1(?:\t| )
This regex matches (at the start of a line) both "1+ spaces followed by a tab" and "1+ tabs followed by a space", but it does *not* match a sequence of just spaces or just tabs.
How does it work?
(Make sure to CW your answers please!)
