@ellis That would be amazing!

I think it'd almost certainly need to be application-specific, going the other direction, though.

NMS Ceefax uses code behind the scenes to parse current BBC news, weather, etc. into teletext format:

@zxguesser has completed a Bluesky version of the Twitter-parsing code, and is working on a Mastodon one:

An up-to-date version of the BBC's teletext service, Ceefax.

@JamieNemeth @ellis oh dear, I might have given a false sense of "actually working on coding something" there. 😆

@zxguesser @ellis Yes, but I do that...and then randomly, one day, out of nowhere, after months of mulling...*furious coding*...something pops out 😛

@JamieNemeth @ellis I realised quickly that mastodon’s lack of consistent (and generally gigantic) toot length makes it impractical.
I also suspect that scraping up people's posts would not go down well here either 😅
