[jgarber] Can’t even deprecate a gem correctly. (note the incorrect “in favor of”… 🤦‍♂️

#
gRegor [jgarber], not necessarily, I might have been getting some similar things mixed up.
#
gRegor AutoAuth is more for a client, like a reader, reading private posts with an access token
#
gRegor ticketauth might have some overlap "allows both solicited and unsolicited invitations to fetch restricted resources"
#
GWG AutoAuth is much more complicated in my opinion.
#
gRegor Aye, it was complicated

[snarfed] early experience with Twitter v2 API: it has cleaned up and simplified a _ton_ of data model cruft that had accumulated over the years to handle Twitter-the-product's accumulated cruft:
#
[snarfed] @-reply canoe prefixes to tweet text, t.co URL suffixes for attached photos and videos, retweets and quote tweets, id_str, text vs full_text vs display_text_range vs truncated, etc
#
[snarfed] also conversation_id is a game changer, I can finally stop doing crazy complicated @-mention searches and manually building reply threads based on in_reply_to_screen_name in_reply_to_status_id
#
[snarfed] likes too, I can finally stop scraping the internal API's favorites page HTML and JSON
#
[snarfed] (of course, all of this conditional on whether the 2M tweets per month cap is enough for Bridgy. there's a very good chance it's not. but they're planning to open up higher quota tiers soon)
#
[snarfed] still TBD whether API v2 is actually good. but it's definitely not slowly-boiled-frog-bad like 1.1 was, so I'll take it
#
[tw2113_Slack_] it's been years since I really did anything with the Twitter API and even then it would jut be cached latest X tweet for a client site
#
[snarfed] heh. Bridgy's usage is obviously pretty involved

@ChrisAldrich ↩️ Seeing things like this always makes me wish that journals would support the W3C Webmention recommendation so that referenced authors could potentially receive notifications of their citations. https://boffosocko.com/2022/05/13/independently-hosted-web-publishing/?replytocom=378454#respond (twitter.com/_/status/1525349937872965633)

[KevinMarks] That's encouraging [snarfed] - do you want to write it up publicly so we can help lobby for limit increases, or are you saving that for when you have done a full update?

#
[snarfed] [KevinMarks] maybe eventually! I'm not worried, they're very clearly and loudly planning higher tiers

#
therussbain Quick "survey" - did you build your own "Notes" app for cross-posting or did you use a canned CMS?
#
[snarfed] lots of both here. https://indieweb.org/projects
