@dalias I blocked and reported. It seems to me that mining folks' posts would be a violation of some server terms (I believe it is a violation of Kolektiva's terms). Many folks have their posts set to auto-delete, so this definitely seems like Seldo's product would be recording posts that would otherwise disappear. I also noticed that some folks from Kolektiva are following that account.

Before I spend some more of my free holiday time fully reverse-engineering things, does anyone know anything about what seems to be a tagged data format that may be a weird compression/encoding/obfuscation for JSON and uses (re-matching) /¬(.+?)÷/ for its tags with the value being “everything up to the next tag”?

A tiny example that has helped me get to where I am: ¬~AA÷QZ5U62OH¬AD÷1774036800¬ADE÷1774036800

The ~AA tag seems to be a unique ID and AD/ADE are timestamps (verified as matching the timestamp I’m expecting.)

I can kludge the data I need out of it now but it’d be interesting to know if it’s encoding a tree (i.e. it started off as JSON and this is obfuscation), if the tags have extrinsic meaning (AD as an analogue to ical’s DTSTART), or if it’s just some weird ASN.1 wannabe (because the world doesn’t have enough horror…?)
