alright enough diversion for today, here's another package in the atcute ecosystem: parser for Bluesky's (extended) rich text syntax github.com/mary-ext/atcut…
Here in Parkour Bluesky, no one chooses to do the vertical jump for the repost - it's safer to do the one block jump for the like.
‘what if you were gay in Gaza?’ that’s a good question. i’d probably be getting bombed by the IDF
Israel bombed the Al Aqsa hospital in Northern Gaza. There are videos of women and children burning to death still connected to IV lines. This was a shelter for refugees. Thousands were living in tents outside the hospital and an unknown number of them were just killed after burning to death.

I have already rewritten the bot in TypeScript for Deno 2.0. It was kinda fun, I think I'll stick with Deno for a while! Deno Deploy hasn't been updated to 2.0 just yet, but hopefully I'll be able to try out my bot there soon. It works locally, so I could always self-host again if all else fails. 😌
So I was deliberating between finding a better hosting option or rewriting the code so my Pi can handle it better. None of that really sparked joy. Over the last few weeks I've been trying out Deno (instead of Node) and honestly, Deno Deploy might just offer me to host the bot for free.
I have some positive @onomatopoeiae.bsky.social news. I feel sorry for half-abandoning it! Part of the problem was me self-hosting the bot on a Raspberry Pi 3. Halfway through the project I switched to creating the images with Puppeteer, which unfortunately didn't play well with my Raspberry Pi.
