Looking through my #Mastodon archive is pretty neat. My toots, boosts, favorites, and bookmarks are all there, and I can extract whatever information I want (e.g. a list of the URLs of all the posts I've boosted) using #jq.

I wonder, though. Is there a viewer program for the #ActivityPub objects in the archive? The JSON representation is pretty hard to read.

Today was really satisfying: building the proof of concept for a little web service I've had simmering on the back burner for a while. What's made it fun has been choosing #FreeBSD for the deployment target - which has meant learning a bunch of new-to-me primitives!

I'll toot more about the service once it's "launched" but, as a quick teaser: it'll be handy for folks who (like me!) never managed to get their heads around #jq, but still need to transform data at the CLI e.g. inside CI 😀🤔
