Instances can block other instances, so grabbing a list of posts from one instance might not necessarily grab all of them. https://mastodon.social/tags/mastodon |

Also, as far as I know most instances don't have any sort of full text post search built in, and I'm pretty sure the ones that do require a login, as far as I can tell at least. |

hook54321: I guess any Mastodon scraper would have to work on a particular instance. If you need more than that, you need to run it multiple times starting from different instances and then merge those lists. At least I can't think of another way that would work reliably. Only following all results and then scraping on those instances as well can easily explode, and it would likely not manage to find |

hei. Does anyone know if this collection is connected to "MirrorTube" ? https://archive.org/details/tubeup&tab=about . Reason i'm asking is that i'm slowly doing 'TNN News' (Tommy Sotomayor).

If you want to keep your username and voice (assuming that you are given voice) you should get a BNC (aka IRC bouncer, aka IRC shell) |

I've been thinking about getting one set up since forever, but never got around to it |

I've tried setting up a BNC a few years ago. I didn't think it was worth the hassle and started using IRCCloud instead. |

Now, for axfc.net, it's a Japanese file sharing site with around 1.3 million public files, ~350000 of which are not password protected. Problem 1 is that it dislikes bots. For one, it quickly starts throwing letter image captchas. |
