I don't have much time today, but I thought I'd boot up the computer to check my emails (about 10 minutes ago) and they're still loading in! I'm not sure why the network connection is so slow today, but I'm getting very few kbps out of the 11Mbps card!
I will need to extend my Mastodon scripts if I was to continue this challenge further as I haven't spent as much time on the Fediverse this week as normal, just because it's difficult to do so. I feel that I'm not keeping up with things though.
I'll post this short entry now and maybe update it later...
So I cheated later on day 7. I met up with a friend who wanted to play a co-op computer game too new to run on my old computer (plus, it would have needed Windows), so I had to use a new computer for that. I have continued to use the old computer a bit though these past 2 days since, which might make up for that? I should do a proper post-mortem on the challenge too at some point.
Seems the SmolPub access tokens run out after about a week, so I kept getting 403 errors just now. Good job the challenge isn't 2 weeks so I could download a new key!
