- harlanji 4y agoI've got an open source Twitter and Mastodon app that's as vanilla as possible. Python + HTMx. Just added video support this morning. Total page load is 200kB. Double-click loads the video: https://twitter.com/iSpoogeDaily/status/1607038383318081537 https://twitter.com/iSpoogeDaily/status/1607038383318081537 I'm releasing every week or two to Glitch unless I can get more funding. Latest version is on https://glitch.com/~hogumathi https://glitch.com/~hogumathi, there's supporter links and licensing info in the readme (public releases are AGPL).
