LinkedIn really is a chore to look at these days. I’d drop it so quickly if I could though like I’ve done other social media apps, but this one has actually been useful for my career (un)fortunately

Halfway through watching The Last House on Netflix and it got me thinking. If all of a sudden you and anyone else with you, couldn’t leave your house, realistically how long could you survive 🤔

Don't suppose there's any documentation around the xrpc/app.bsky.unspecced.getPostThreadV2 endpoint that the BlueSky client proxies to App Views? It's the endpoint that's now called when viewing a single post from a timeline/feed, replacing this I think endpoints.bsky.app#bluesky-app/...

Didn’t have a Nintendo64 as a kid. Had a PlayStation and GameBoy(s). Played and loved all the GameBoy Zeldas and played a little of Ocarina of Time at a friends once. The trailer for the remake has me absolutely psyched though!

Spent a couple days wrestling Rusts memory management but I finally got quote post embedding working 🥲 Need to attempt some of the other embed types next and then I should probably tidy up the code because it looks like a bomb site right now.

Ohhhh I got reposts working. Nothing like sleeping on a problem and then fixing it straight away at 6am 😂 Next up, it’s time to attempt post embedding. This one looks tough

Thought I’d give xrpc/app.bsky.feed.getTimeline a go this evening. It returns results when hit the endpoint with a curl, but the Bluesky app doesn’t load a timeline 😔 Wonder if there’s another endpoint the timeline feed is calling 🤔 Anyway, I need sleep. New blog post tomorrow on progress

Can someone help explain why my appview isn't valid when trying to use on witchsky. It tells me "Couldn’t find a #bsky_appview service at this URL" but unless I'm being silly, I can see one for my appview URL. appview.willdot.xyz/.well-known/...

Should I be able to log into the Bluesky app using my spaces account? Because I can’t. It tells me account not found 😔

One of the things I’m excited for with atproto spaces is that all the little apps I wanted to build and keep my private data, can have the most basic styling. Because these apps are mostly for me, so they don’t need to look good. Like this really excites me.

Wow it’s been exactly 1 year since I switched to hosting my own PDS. It’s been a smooth year with no problems at all. The only thing I would probably add to this thread is that I used PDS Gatekeeper by @pds.dad to add 2FA as the reference PDS doesn’t (yet) support it. Happy days.
