Okay, I'm going to add "max_toot_chars" to /api/v1/instance, and set it to the string "unlimited" to actually reflect my capabilities—

> fediverse.network: your instance doesn't exist anymore

Ehhh? Excuse me? O-kay, I'll just set it to like, 2mb then...

relatedly: why does mastodon think it's a good idea that when there's an error handling an account's header image (which is rarely seen), it should erase both that AND the avatar even if the avatar was otherwise fine

oh hey I *finally* tracked down and fixed what was causing zoe's header and avatar to always revert to default

unsure whether failing to pull up toots from sleeping.town is something broken on una's end or mine

the fediverse at large appears to be having massive issues right now.

doing some refollows to fix issues created by this whole mess, if you're wondering

three hours later, I've fixed a lot of the bugs from hastily trying to implement request signing

I have a fully usable instance again \o/

time to futz around with Mastodon and Fix All The Things™

boy I love hearing about one of my friends getting kicked out of a restaurant because a transphobic parent whined to management, isn't that just grand

good morning,

12 hours of Pokémon rando @w@

Gonna be streaming a casual Pokémon Crystal randomizer "race" with @Raspberryfloof and another friend at https://twitch.tv/K_S_/

well that's 8 hours of my life I'm never getting back

It's 7:30. I still don't know what's wrong. I'm frustrated.

I'm still not going to bed until this is fixed...

"Public key not found for key https://is.a.qute.dog/users/KS#main-key"

Excuse me

You're staring RIGHT AT THE THING, and you somehow CAN'T FIND IT

I'M GOING TO STAY UP UNTIL I GET THIS DAMN THING WORKING

It's already 5am and what little semblance of a proper sleep schedule I had has been shot dead by this point

Well, now I'm sending a signature with my requests, but it still doesn't work. Now what's wrong...

I am going to stubbornly backport every breaking change to 1.6 until I can no longer do so, I swear.

Just out of spite of this "move fast and break things" methodology that web dev has embraced.
