I feel this way about some folks on “Flemish Twitter.” That said, can’t say I miss any of the crap thrown around over there!

@ton Just FYI, WordPress has Atom built in, too, so you’d use that for input. (I was just a bit too fast before, it seems.)

@ton There’s two accounts (both mine), but this one gets used a lot more often. (I could look into affordable third-party storage buckets and what not, but I’m okay for now. Also, I’m not entirely sure why I—and everybody else—should keep everyone’s images [and toots] around forever.)

@berkes @kensanata Interesting. I've created a sourdough starter with just tap water and whole-wheat flour, and had it covered from day one. No potato juice or anything. Just kept feeding it once a day for a week.

My tiny Mastodon instance is now two months old (and growing steadily). I’m currently using some 57%, most of which—I think—is Ubuntu itself, and the Mastodon Docker images, of my dedicated 20 GB VPS. (That said, the `public/system/accounts` folder is almost 3 GB as well, and I don’t think it’s as easily cleaned out as orphaned attachments or link previews.)

(See above.) You’d use it like so: https://granary.io/url?input=atom&output=rss&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zylstra.org%2Fblog%2Ffeed%2Fatom%2F @ton

In reply to https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2020/03/is-there-a-feedburner-alternative/.

Maybe https://granary.io could work? Not a feed hosting service, but a type of proxy that doesn’t store anything (and is typically used to convert one feed type into another). You should be able to use it to “translate” WordPress’s RSS to Atom—or WordPress’s Atom to RSS.

(Or https://github.com/matzeeable/wp-hookdoc.)

(Perhaps some version of https://github.com/WordPress/phpdoc-parser.)

A way to automatically document hook callbacks would be nice, especially for WordPress plugins.

Been messing with phpDocumentor a bit: https://docs.janboddez.tech/page-themes/. Probably doesn't bring much on a project this tiny, but it did make me think about writing proper class descriptions and things.

Just learned about MVP.css and it’s _genius_. (I myself have mostly been using “normalize.css” plus as little as possible hand-crafted CSS for a while now, but this might be an even better starting point. Heck, it’s probably perfect for styling a few quickly thrown together static HTML files.)
