[ear rape warning] please watch my COOL intro

sorry about uwu.social going down again this month, the same issue happened with hetzner's billing system. i'll make sure they fix it

move successful. my desktop arrived a day earlier than I expected (it got freighted separately), so that's pretty nice. gave my second monitor to a relative so I have a reason to buy a high refresh rate monitor now. maybe 4K??

if you mute bots and put them in a list their posts will still show in the list:

oops uwu.social is back

building mastodon image with 1000 char limit and a patch I made that allows muted accounts to appear on lists for uwu.social. the service will restart hopefully within the next 30 minutes

I need a higher refresh rate monitor. I keep trying to read faster in stepmania but it's just a massive blur if I increase the note speed

accidentally synced 5gb over mobile data thinking it'd only be 80mb... rip

can a user mute a whole instance from showing in their federated timeline in mastodon?

for the unaware, in Australia, lots of ISPs won't peer with cloudflare, either because they don't peer at australian IXes or they're just being dicks...

in response Cloudflare forces them to pay for transit by preventing Austrlian DC routes being propagated to the companies that won't peer to them in AU, which means I have to connect to Hong Kong, Tokyo or L.A. to connect to cloudflare free/pro sites. Australian internet is already slow enough so it just adds insult to injury for consumers

considered bunnycdn but no websocket support, considering cloudfront or something instead. uwu.social (not includin gfiles.uwu.social) doesn't use much bandwidth since it's just AP + FE + websocket...

maybe I could try turning cloudflare off for a bit and see if it's really that unbearable for me, might turn out to be OK or even faster?

I'm impressed with bunnycdn and no one has had any problems with it so I think it'll stay. for comparison if you want to measure speeds, the origin is origin.files.uwu.social, which connects directly to the box it's stored on.

it's not that big of a deal but it'd also be nice to move away from cloudflare on the main site, security/protection isn't really a big deal for me (obviously, since the IP's public anyways) - it's mostly speed that I'm after.

never watched one piece before but someone gave me a free ticket to the new movie and i have to say when monkey boy activated his gamer mode i was like "bruh"

good movie gamers will enjoy this movie 10/10

new madeon album kinda epic

I tried making a list and then just muting them but now their new posts dont go into the list

how do you mute someone and make them appear in a list? i want a bots list so they dont clog my home column

yeah I can already notice a huge difference holy shit. my third world internet can load images in less than a second now

trialling bunnycdn on files.uwu.social, i'm sick of media being slow to load in australia because of cloudflare redirecting traffic to tokyo and los angeles

let me know if you notice a slowdown. europe, US and asia pacific are enabled so it should be ok for everyone
