Dave 🌱Small updates on my new <a href="https://68k.social?t=selfhosted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SelfHosted</a> <a href="https://68k.social?t=snac2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Snac2</a> adventures; I've enabled Bunny's CDN yesterday (I've been using them for all my DNS needs), adding some "edge rules" exclusions and whatnot to have it not potentially get in the way of dynamic functionality. This, combined with enabling Snac2's <code>proxy_media</code> option should help keep things a bit more snappy for me. I might still move things to my Seoul-hosted Vultr instance though, we'll see.<br><br>Beyond this I only ran into two issues so far;<br><br>I can't seem to send posts from <a href="https://68k.social?t=tusky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Tusky</a>, which I found is a known issue (<a href="https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/issues/458" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/issues/458</a> and <a href="https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/issues/5226" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/issues/5226</a>). It seems like it's not <i>technically</i> the fault of Tusky, though it was introduced in a more recent version with some dependency version bump.<br><br>Fortunately they've gone ahead and applied a fix on their end to ensure better compatibility (<a href="https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/commit/e591c67e00e70112c53c9009874f558db99369a9" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/commit/e591c67e00e70112c53c9009874f558db99369a9</a>). Seems like I'll just have to wait a bit for v31 to be released (or switch to the beta, I suppose).<br><br>The other issue is with how <a href="https://68k.social?t=tuba" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Tuba</a> doesn't seem to refresh automatically anymore. Or its refresh interval is very long, not sure. I don't know if snac2 supports the "feed streaming" functionality Tuba speaks of, but whether I have that enabled or not, neither the home feed nor the notifications actually update until I manually refresh.<br><br>Maybe this is indicative of a misconfiguration on my end, I'll need to fiddle a bit more with it.<br><br>Other than that.. For the first ~day everything seems to be running just fine?

Tomáš Odehnal<p>Yesterday I discovered, that I haven't deleted my photos from Google Photos after takeout. (I still keep the account as it is handy from time to time, I just don't use it regularly.)</p><p>So I decided I will delete the photos. I started with manual approach:<br>1. select first photo<br>2. scroll down to the point where there is still the possibility of selecting a photo (varies between 100-300 photos)<br>3. shift clicking last photo<br>4. click recycle bin, confirm<br>5. refresh page<br>6. repeat</p><p>This is so slow that I thought, ok, let's try some scripting. LLM to the rescue, of course. This would probably work, but I quickly found out, that the Google Photos Library API was limited this year and it DOESN'T SUPPORT REMOVING THE FILES anymore! <a href="https://developers.google.com/photos/overview/authorization#library-api-scopes" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">developers.google.com/photos/o</span><span class="invisible">verview/authorization#library-api-scopes</span></a></p><p>I'm so glad I left like 2 years ago, this is clearly a golden cage (except it is a golden-painted metal and is getting rusty).
