@jimandrews Really depends on the day and mood I am in. But yes, I normally have a checklist of what I am looking to accomplish and strict time constraints to keep me from falling in. However I am not always trustworthy once I am spelunking into the hole and get interested in something.

I am capable of going down almost any technological rabbit hole, the challenge is knowing when I should and when I shouldn't. I am constantly struggling with this in what I do in my work.

@WecanbeGyros I haven't found any. Makes me sad. I have been a lifelong NPR listener. Maybe with all of the journalist, podcast, and other creative talent here on Mastodon--something can emerge? IDK

@WecanbeGyros They lost me as a listener in the last couple of years because of this.

@jik @api @api it me ;-)

@jik Nice! Thanks! Added a supporting comment to the thread. I'll spread the word and maybe others can pile on.

@judell So I can abstract away baseUrl and token for each instance I am working with.

@judell Look under the environments tab. I have an environment for each instance.

@judell A collection is just a wrapper. I can make as big or as small as I like -- capability collections are just single use to reduce cognitive load and allow me to share individually.

@judell You suffer from same condition as me. Mouseover each collection and each one has a star and three dots.....everything you need is under three dots.

@ramsey Let me know if you struggle -- my goal is to make as frictionless for newbies as I can.

@ramsey Should be. Just fork collection and you'll have to add your key -- then the menu for your collection will allow you to schedule as monitor.

@dev I like the single tree pic the best with the dead branches, but all are beautiful.

@ramsey Yes you can! You can run manually using runner, schedule from different cloud regions, and use via CI/CD. I have separate environments for different accounts / instances that I pair with the collections. So I pull content from API, then post with Mastodon API to specific instance.

So far I have created 25 separate Mastodon API capability collections, allowing me to automate common things I do with accounts, bookmarks, favorites, followers, lookups, post of statuses, searching accounts, hashtags, and statuses, timelines, trends, as well as verify my account. I'll keep building out new ones and augmenting them based upon my needs or what I hear from others. Feel free to fork and use! https://www.postman.com/api-evangelist/workspace/89a20890-1ad3-47d7-850c-51f678e1a716/overview

Crafty #1 prediction there @njyx -- almost like that title was generated by AI. https://njyx.medium.com/ai-and-creativity-predictions-for-2023-1c67425fcbb1

@jik I think you should. Send me link when you do and I'll vote up. I've been using notes a lot and this would help.

@jik No, I don't think you are missing it. From what I know the private note is stored on the /follow, so the only way to pull the private note is to POST /follow with a specific account id. Private notes aren't even listed when you pull followers for your own account. If i find anything else I'll let you know. Looks like you'd have to loop through all followers and make individual /follow to see if you had note for each one.
