Can't get away from the feeling that the "mastodon is dead" article is overblown and exaggerated to a ridiculous degree. A public timeline is never going to stay a close-knit circle of friends as soon as any popularity is gained; expecting it to is complete nonsense. That's what local timelines are for.
And by the way, if your reaction to an instance for conservatives would be "nuke on sight", you're part of the problem.
I wish I felt confident about myself when I write anything...
The joys of open source: I pulled in a PR (instance colors on mentions) from @mykola because I wanted the feature on my own instance even though it seems Mastodon doesn't!
Time for bed... zwz
Sylv...~
woof...
I feel kinda stupid and silly now
All of that wild goose chase and it turns out my cron jobs weren't running right because the tasks were running in the wrong directory.
Um, oops.
More specifically, this seems to have started about 21 hours ago, so...
I don't seem to be getting timeline updates from a lot of instances now that I've updated to 1.2.2...
I can still search for statuses from those instances that aren't on my timeline and it pulls them up fine, but my timeline is quite silent otherwise

You know, I think it's better like this =w='

help oh god why am I feeling all scared or worried for submitting a pull request for monologuing
I guess it was just an issue with my dev environment. Works fine live in production. Weird.
Updated the Monologuing branch to be even with tag 1.2.2
If people care about it I can submit a PR for it...
SCREW IT WE'RE DOING IT LIVE
honestly I can just move my local branch back if it breaks
Um, well... hesitant to upgrade to 1.2.2 because my VM instance, running the 1.2.2 tag with no modifications, isn't populating the timeline properly.
It displays empty, even though I *know* there are posts on the account I'm viewing from. The local timeline shows them properly.
If you want to use Monologuing on your own instances, I've split it out of my own branch and made a fork of 1.1.2 with the feature added. You can find it here: https://github.com/STJrInuyasha/mastodon/tree/monologuing
