Hi all

I'm shutting down What's Mid in ~1 hour (giving you time to try and get 1 last post in)

I don't use bsky much anymore and can't keep on top of it

Hello everyone

This account continues to be dormant

However DMs on What’s Mid are open

I will only open the following:

- letting me know the account is reposting you and you don’t want it to

- you giving me a virtual pat on the back for creating the bot

- 7 figure acquisition offers (GBP)

👍

Hoping WM just needs a restart but I won’t be at my pc for a couple of hours so you’ll have to go without for a little longer, sorry!

Might need to fix something more than just the endpoint. I should really stay on top of bsky releases...

Hopefully just a case of updating the atproto package

I'll keep it running for now as it's working better than it was. I'll look into this at some point

I think we're back

Posts made before ~30 mins ago will still be dodgy. Everything after that should be fine
Mid bot is missing a bunch of posts. I haven't looked into it yet but I think I should have updated something with the PDS changes (it all goes over my head all i know is be mid programmer, type as any and npm i)

I'll take a look at some point soon™️

If someone smarter than me wants to build this I'll gladly boost it from the @whatsmid.bsky.social account
I want @whatsmid.bsky.social to work on a probabilistic model - it might reskeet ANY skeet but the probability is based on the distance in likes from its current core range.

That way you don't always miss out on the bump the second your post hits say 12 likes for example

I forgot to post an update to this

It seems most people want the min to stay the same but for the max to increase.

The goal of the poll was to minimise reposts but that solution will just increase them.

I'm going to leave criteria as-is.

How do you do, fellow mid posters

In response to feedback I'm considering changing repost criteria for @whatsmid.bsky.social

Pls repost and respond to the polls below - I won't be undoing the change(s)!

Had to restart the server a couple of times in the past half an hour. Some posts might be missed as a result, sorry!

A few people have had posts ignored by @whatsmid.bsky.social. I’m hoping to get it sorted this week but I’ve got a lot on so I’m not promising anything!

we are so back

It’s possible the bot just sent out a bunch of ghost notifications/repeated follow notifications to those that followed since it’s been down. Sorry about that.

grateful for the amount of time @jcsalterego.bsky.social must waste in photoshop

ty mid posters, very cool!

It’s ya boi captain mediocrity once again apologising for the mass of reposts after the bot came back online & reminding you feeds solve the problem of TL clutter

What’s Mid is down and I’m keeping it down while everything is slow.

In other news, I’ve made some changes for when it comes back:
- reposts now only count for 1 like
- max post age is 1hr
- polls bsky less frequently (every 3 minutes)

If these changes are dumb let me know by calling me dumb below

June 30, 2023 at 12:09 AM
Oh my god that was a lot of posts, sorry.

Might be time to mute the account switch to the feed?

Either what’s mid is down or you’re all slacking, looking into it
