The Frontpage of Mastodon (lazymastodon.com)

Without a small excerpt it’s pointless for me. I don’t want to click each entry to see what it is about.

Or is it because I’m on mobile?


I did not want to simply duplicate the post text. iframes load super slow and many servers don't allow embedding. So i went back to the super minimal version. But i think its fun, as you explore the federiverse you get to know what kind of content is on different servers


Why not duplicate the post text ? You don't want to fetch it ? I'm not sure iframes would be a good solution anyway…


It changes the legal context, though. Now you're hosting the stuff.

The frontpage of Mastodon seems to have a lot of overlap with the former frontpage of Craiglist Adult Services.


That's deliberate. It's the Switter posts, like Twitter, but, well, you get it.


hehe that spread fast. Author here


It seems down for me.


for me too


hmmm



Already hugged to death by HN. Perhaps it's a good idea to replace it with a static website for now?


yea man, I was not thinking of posting on HN yet. I'll get on it right after this meeting


Alright meeting over. http://lazymastodon.com.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/

if you clear your dns cache it should redirect you.

S3 give me some time to configure NGINX caching


Sorry for posting it prematurely. I was excited to see this. I didn't think it would die under HN load.
