Oh. @Mastodon turned off the Public Timeline. Not just the UI but the API itself. Which all of my @AltTextHealthCheck reports depends on.

So I can switch to an API from a difference instance which is maybe weird because the account in on mastodon.social OR maybe @Mastodon can just turn off the UI and no the API? I assume the 2nd one is a long shot.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

@Mastodon hey @stefan@stefanbohacek.online curious if you have thoughts on what I should do about the public timeline being disabled here.

@stefan@gardenstate.social Oh wow, yeah, I did not expect that.

Paging @andypiper, was this intentional?

Stefan

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online @andypiper and more specifically the API doesn't fail or throw an error. it just returns 0 results. something my bot never planed for so I publish empty charts.
