In-reply-to » I have a Python script that transforms the original YouTube channel Atom feed into a more useful Atom feed by removing the spam description and replacing it with the video duration, filtering out videos by title, duration, etc. I just updated it to exclude the damn Shorts garbage more efficiently. Finally, YouTube updated their Atom feed generation, so that the video URL contains /short/ if it's of this useless kind. Never thought that they ever actually will improve their Atom feeds. Thank you, much appreciated!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org perfectly fine, don’t worry about it!!! this looks really cool TY for sharing it :D

i signed up for omg.lol and i’m really liking it. such a cozy and fun little community with a suite of fun web things. i wish the financial barrier to entry was a bit lower though (maybe like $5 for a few months on it or something) just so i could recommend it to my broke friends more, but i totally get why it’s priced the way it is (solo dev!!!)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org check out their song zenbu kakete go!! it’s very sleek and smooth and just so vibe-y!!! also this live performance has an EPIC intro featuring ichika (violin girl) plus one of the members beatboxing and two girls (including my all time favorite idol, dambara ruru!) on vocals! it’s so good

Twtxt as a network is so neat. Sucks it isn’t more widely adopted ): I feel like it’d be way easier to host than say, mastodon or GTS. & would require WAYYYY less resources. Not a diss on GTS, I love GTS , just saying because it’s text files, I assume the minimum amount of ram needed to host any of the twtxt server software is very low.

I could be super wrong though lol. Idk shit about anything ^^”

In-reply-to » linode's having a major outage (ongoing as of writing, over 24 hours in) and my friend runs a site i help out with on one of their servers. we didn't have recent backups so i got really anxious about possible severe data loss considering the situation with linode doesn't look great (it seems like a really bad incident).

@bender@twtxt.net yeah, my friend’s considering moving away from linode and instead self hosting. VPS stuff is a pain

linode’s having a major outage (ongoing as of writing, over 24 hours in) and my friend runs a site i help out with on one of their servers. we didn’t have recent backups so i got really anxious about possible severe data loss considering the situation with linode doesn’t look great (it seems like a really bad incident).

…anyway the server magically came back online and i got backups of the whole application and database, i’m so relieved :‘)
