Aaaaaaand the Federated Timeline goes hurrrrrling by at break-neck speed in an absolute blur of Japanese characters. Seriously, the pictures they are posting aren't even fully loading before they are off the bottom of the timeline. Is anyone working on user agent filtering or anything? It'd be nice to be able to, you know, actually be able to use and understand the Fed Timeline.

7582 per second on Birdsite.

We *may* be getting close towards hitting that, judging by /my/ FT feed.

@wishx Why don't you download the google translate plugin and select/highlight the text you want to read?
@attack I usually do translate posts I want to read, but I can't tell what I do and don't want to read because it's all in Japanese and going by at 4,000 posts per second. 😀
@attack Also, just installed this Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey translation script. We'll see how it goes for posts I actually do want to read.
