Oh my god, I thought I was losing my mind. I read this toot and saw what I assumed was a typo, smirked, re-read it, and the typo was gone. Turns out it was edited and phanpy just refreshed it instantl…
My “Year in posts” powered by Phanpy.

RE: mastodon.social/@cheeaun/115817481782401888
By post, it's mostly web rather than Phanpy.
Suspect it's mostly replies over stand-alone only because of threads here really. Most of a thread counts as a reply because it's a reply-to-self.
I mostly use the web interface for new posts rather than the phanpy one because I can't type an emoji in Phanpy. Only instance custom-emojis can be typed starting with a colon and I usually want 😄 or 😉 or 🙄 not the custom emojii. Can't type them on Phanpy. So I mostly compose on web.
Maybe the Phanpy dev has some kind of emoji plugin or something? Dunno why he makes it only do the custom ones.
But this is why I mostly post from web even though I almost entirely read from Phanphy. Which means replies mostly come from Phanpy but standalone mostly from Web.
The ability to schedule posts is really one my favorite https://phanpy.social features which I've been using a lot this year. 🙏 Other than lack of dev bandwidth/resources, not sure why the default Mastodon UI doesn't support it if it's actually part of the official API. There's an open issue about it sin…

Adding support for disabled "live feeds".
Now the issue is whether to hide the 'Local' and 'Federated' menu items in the main nav. Phanpy allows users to switch servers, so…
Update: Phanpy is NOT supporting the official Mastodon quoted posts at the moment. They are still using their own implementation, means quotes are only shown in Phanpy and for example when using Moshidon as a client.
[When you click the little rocket under a toot a dialog pops up, asking whether you will "boost" or "quote" the toot. In this toot I have chosen "quote"]
(and I don't know if this will work 😄)
Many years ago I was working with a friend to find a bug in a Makefile generator. We had a megabyte or so of Makefile we needed to examine. He was an emacs user. It took him minutes just to open the file. I was using sam. It took about a second for sam to load, and I found the problem before he'd even finished loading the file.
The speed of tools matters, and big files are common nowadays. Things should stay fast as their workload grows. That goes double for interactive tools.
By the way, it still takes me 30 seconds to log in to my bank. I wonder how long it will take when it's an LLM-generated landing page.

Actually, viewing that #Wrapstodon in #phanpy is way better. Most interacted with and boosted accounts, monthly break downs, top hashtags and more.
Well done @… why the hell doesn't the main web app show all that? Madness.
Phanpy doesn't support quoots yet, so I'm using Mastodon's stock web interface and.. it's bad. Compare how busy it looks with unnecessary stuff (do I really need a "post" input form on screen at all times? Do I need a link to "favorites" visible at all times?), but also - the fonts are bad. Bad, bad, bad. Just so much harder to read. And the timeline toots just kind of run together, rather than being clearly delineated by whitespace in phanpy.

@… on dev.phanpy, I can't set "anyone can quote" it just switches back to "only you can quote". This a TBD?

Been getting double-posting issues on mastodon.social server here. Quite embarrassing having to delete the duplicate replies.
Thought could be a Phanpy bug but seems unlikely because Phanpy implements `Idempotency-Key` (https://docs.joinmastod…
Split view in #chromium 144 is a very nice feature.

Well-written post, especially the “About Phanpy” part 😉
Very cool to see this.
RE: https://toot.cafe/@tomayac/115620850298745912
👀👀 @… mentioned.
Side note: Phanpy also implemented Language Detector & Translator …
This took a while 😅

"Mastodon-ish instances". Wait, what? 👀👀👀
Here's a WIP #SneakPeek
I needed this, built it. No idea what's the direction yet but it's fun.
#PhanpySocialDev (still on my local dev)
Probably still early to speculate. Either someone can confirm if @… is still being maintained, or someone needs to take over maintenance.
There hasn't been much updates, but it still fills the gap where Phanpy falls short.
