While being stranded for 24h in Germany and Paris’ airport, I finished a first version of a “Mastodon Unroller”, a simple way to take activitypub threads and make clean article out of them in your Astro website.

After a few iteration I think it’s now time to show a little demo!

It already support neat features such as:

• Fetching a post content and its replies by the same author
• Display images, audio, video and polls in a nice way
• Attribution and links at the bottom of the article
• Custom emojis!!
• Optionally hide hashtags
• Comments section!

For now I call it “Mastodon Unroller” because it’s based of the Mastodon API, but it should work with any fediverse software that implements it (hopefully)

In fact, this post has been created on my Akkoma instance!

It still needs some work before it can be released: I kinda made the mistake to go for Tailwind + manual css for the inner content, which could give inconsistent results if you were to use it without Tailwind or if your website already has a stylesheet.

I also have no idea how to publish a package or if that would be useful to people, so please let me know if that’s the case !

In any case, any feedback or suggestion are very welcome: here’s the link to this thread unrolled as well as some examples: Demo Blog Post

Thank you for your attention, have a very nice day

gf just sent me this, and now I need to know:

Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne

There we go, I finally started it; here’s how my adventure went so far

First thing, more games should have an option in the main menu that just plays a cool trailer for another game; and the music of this one is just sooo good, I managed to find it on Bandcamp!

Me: Yeah, I’m just a casual at JRPG I’m not like that big on them

Also me: Okay omg hear me out, I have no way to check this but I’m pretty sure this exact gray panel texture is recycled from Persona 1 or 2 I swear I saw this thing somewhere

That pattern for sure is from SMT2, it’s a nice touch honestly

The lighting is quite impressive already, I wonder which technique they used to simulate this effect (not sure what was possible or not on the PS2)

hey wait a second that’s not how a hospital is supposed to look like

Yeah I’m glad it’s over too

(genuinely cannot remember where he was going with that line)

She doesn’t know that she’s gonna get fused in a few hours

crap she’s reaching puberty

:(

There I got a hour of progress wiped out by a strong random encounter :(

Absolutely my fault, I was trying to befriend them while it wasn’t possible; I’m restarting stronger now. BUT it’s gonna be occasional save states from now on

You don’t see many humans in the game, but when you do they are depressed and disappear right after

Will you do something naughty with with Nekomata?

(I’m telling you what happens next time! Sorry for the spam)

AAARG-

The incident has been resolved and my adventure continues

I’m not vibing with the absence of story so far, but this game really has cool designs
