computer fairies is fucking haunted

git isn't letting me revert this commit https://github.com/computerfairies/mastodon/commit/2bb76a240e30900cd87c8472b0927249dd0f1240

it says bad object when i try

help?

i want to revert the new homepage

ok i found it i just need to reintroduce these three lines in this file i think and hope i'm not fucking breaking everything because who knows am i right https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/commit/45fbdcc#diff-3fb459a28b27d6839fb62d18bceecf8a

when i get angry at things i write rambly posts with no punctuation in them because that's literally what i do irl, i just start rambling without pause because i need to vent in frustration

SO IN CONCLUSION i don't want to remove media links

i want to keep the media links because more than once i've had a post boosted onto my timeline where the poster removed the media link and the media didn't federate properly and the toot referenced an image that wasn't there unless you expanded the toot and there was a link to an embed with that random characters filename mastodon puts on images and it links to the image on the remote instance but the toot on my instance never had media in it

so the mastodon commit which allows blank media toots also removes the media link insertion

i want to keep the insertion but also allow blank toots

ofc i can't have this unless i get elbow deep into the fucking mess that is mastodn ruby and javascript because both things are the same commit

SIGH

oh wait a second im a dummy

this doesn't include the git reverts i wanted to do for those stupid changes gargron approved uurgh

bundle install

yarn install

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails db:migrate

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails assets:precompile

haha i am so proud of my instance's scss setup right now

@noelle is hecking me up

really wanted to keep this as a submodule but since i can't do that and keep the folder structure it wants without using symlinks, i guess i'll just have to download it as zip and plop it in and defeat the purpose of this being a git repo

https://github.com/skiant/mastodon-light-theme

... webpacker doesn't follow symlinks, the bastard, does it

i think i found one nvm

ideally id make my own with a green/purple pastel palette to fit with the computer fairies theme but uh

some other time

and i kinda wanna just have a whatever light theme rn
