01:22 <ill_logic_> Sandstorm package is a month old?

01:40 <ill_logic_> i.e. Sandstorm failed to install

01:55 <ocdtrekkie> kentonv:

01:56 <kentonv> sigh

01:56 <ocdtrekkie> Gotta be just barely, I'm seeing 12/12 on the last commit

02:06 <ill_logic_> I install fairly often for development.

02:06 <ill_logic_> That's how I noticed.

02:18 <kentonv> I'd feel bad about the capnproto issue still not being fixed after a month, but the boringssl build is also still broken after a month so...

03:09 <ocdtrekkie> Holidays, you should've seen what Microsoft considered acceptable patches for the month of December.

13:35 <ocdtrekkie> Guess we know why all the Cloudflare folks were waiting to join Mastodon now? https://github.com/cloudflare/wildebeest

14:52 <kentonv> ocdtrekkie, I think it's sort of an exercise in building apps on Workers, not sure if they plan to publicize it. But indeed, a reason I haven't moved to mastadon is because I don't like the idea of joining some random server hosted by someone I know nothing about, I'd much rather host my own, and this might just give me a convenient way to do that. We'll see.

15:26 <ocdtrekkie> I found jgrahamc's wildebeest already. I'm half-tempted to try it but am unsure what my billing would look like.

15:27 <kentonv> yeah unfortunately right now it depends on some non-free features

15:28 <ocdtrekkie> I mean the Images cost doesn't seem unreasonable, but I'm betting I'd break the free tier with it on other products. My Mastodon feed is pretty prolific.

15:29 <ocdtrekkie> I'm not opposed to paying a bill, but it's really hard for me to guess what that bill would be, and that's where I start to hesitate.

15:31 <kentonv> yeah. I believe the team is aware that this is a problem currently.

15:31 <kentonv> dunno if they have any plan to address it

17:06 <ocdtrekkie> I imagine if some number of people start using Wildebeest, I'd be able to hear some practical results on what ends up costing roughly what.

18:11 <TimMc> I'm curious how it will be received, given how unpopular Cloudflare is in the parts of fedi that I'm exposed to.

18:13 <ocdtrekkie> The context I saw it in was someone indicating it meant the corporate people were coming to annex the fediverse.

18:15 <ocdtrekkie> Cloudflare has obvious detractors on the fediverse but a ton of instances depend on Cloudflare to function already, so it's definitely not a unified view.
