@starwall Comparatively, this is what @CyclopsCaveman's thread looks like. Notice the clown penis tangent...

How the hell has something I've made gotten over 50 boosts?! My most celebrated professional work on Twitter doesn't even get those kinds of numbers! 💚💚💚💚

@andi FOUND IT, it took a google search but I found it. radical.town/@starwall/1010147

Rev. Andi N. Fiziks  

@starwall Hmmm! Yeah, I think the style the visualiser uses tends to be emphasis quantity of toots over number of people in them. I should do something like size nodes based on number of participants...

@andi admittedly, Hellthread 2 was way bigger.

@andi this is so cool!

@ponfarr Thank you!!! 😊 TBTH the hard part was more figuring out Mastodon's API than visualising the thing!

Feel free to fork it and try other D3 hierarchical layouts! Should be a way to get most of the ones in here running: github.com/d3/d3-hierarchy

This is *very* cool.

Be a shame if *this* were to turn into a hellthread.

@Quixote171 @starwall INDEED! 😄 (and thanks!)

(But mainly because I'm about to head to drinks and my mobile's dead 😓 )

This is... less big than I remember.

Starwall the Science Ball  

@ben @andi we need a varying size of the dots, representing how many boosts and favs they got. That would be the logical next step.

@ben @andi oh my fortune teller one is satisfying.

@starwall @andi @Quixote171 @bryn @nuttgodd I mean, I *guess* you could call it a timeline thread.

@andi @starwall i'm getting an error, am i doing it wrong? this is the URL

cryptids.online/users/spookcen

1+
Rev. Andi N. Fiziks  

@scribblefrog @starwall Hmm, seems the API is missing a toot. It's worth noting that I can only visualise the toots that botsin.space have seen, and the stratification algo will die if it can't find a particular parent. Will try to build a workaround for the next version!! 💚

@andi @scribblefrog @starwall

If you search for the URL of any ActivityPub object, the instance will update its record in the database.

I had to do that recently when an avatar refused to update.

1
Rev. Andi N. Fiziks  

@ben @scribblefrog @starwall Oh wow, that is really good to know — I can write some error handling for that no prob 🙌

1
Rev. Andi N. Fiziks  

@ben So, I have the local ID of the problematic status but not its original URL or instance ID. Any ideas? Worst case I can patch around by creating dummy objects but it'd be nice if I didn't have to do that.

1
Ben Lubar  

@andi

does botsin.space/web/statuses/[the local ID] show or redirect to anything useful?

1
Rev. Andi N. Fiziks  

@ben Doesn't seem like it, appears to be a 404.

1
Ben Lubar  

@andi probably a deleted toot or a toot from someone who blocks the entire botsin.space domain.

1
Rev. Andi N. Fiziks  

@ben Quite likely. Okay cool, I'll do some error handling that makes it show up as a like a white dot or something. Thanks for the insight! 💚
