@matigo Yeah kicking the tires so to speak. At least that’s my excuse.
@matigo Nah just changing where I direct some of my social noise in the fediverse.
@nitinkhanna Yeah probably. I’m just concerned that if they move to something like Slack for example they’ll create more friction with their community than just getting away from IRC will cause. I do agree it doesn’t have to be something they self host per se but centralized closed systems I fear don’t work well in the open source community they rely on.
@nitinkhanna Yeah I certainly think so. I hope though that their new platform whatever it ends up being is something that is not closed and proprietary.
So apparently Mozilla is going to shutdown their IRC network. http://exple.tive.org/blarg/2019/04/26/synchronous-text/
With that out of the way (assuming there aren't any awful bugs) I can now take the time and hammer out some libraries and a proper open source edition of blurbybot. 😁
Okay pushover users, you can now login to https://blurbybot.monkeystew.org/ and enable notifications. Let me know if you run into issues.
If any pushover users are impatient and would like me to enabled them manually behind the scenes let me know. Otherwise I hope to have the settings page working again sometime this weekend when I can steal more time.
@phoneboy yeah me and my lazy error handling. BlurbyBot will get a full proper rewrite but I wanted to hack the old version till it worked so there might be some odd errors messages for the moment.
