2026 Old Computer challenge: Day 6

Had work again today, but I did have time to implement a Fedi script that could display statuses with a hashtag, which is apparently distinct in the Mastodon API from the idea of searching for hashtags. Thanks to @eric@geldmacher.io for pointing me in the right direction.

Eric's toot, the solution to my previous confusion.

I caught a little of the tennis too, since OCC seems to always fall on the Wimbledon fortnight: Sad that Fery has been knocked out, but impressive to have got this far.

I'm writing this at nearly half six (PM), but I might have time to update it later tonight if I have chance to do any more.

[Update]

I fixed my "show context" Fedi scripts to work on this slightly different version of `ash` that TinyCore 16 has instead of TinyCore 6 (I've had to keep doing tweaks because of this and the differing of `dc` too).

I probably won't have much time tomorrow as I'm at a thing all day, but if I do get time, I'll write an entry.
