On Social Media

Has anybody actually had any luck with Takeout exporting their Google+ Stream ActivityLog, JSON or otherwise? It fails consistently for me for at least two and usually all three of these: +1s on comments +1s on posts Comments Everything else I can get just fine, but not these three. In nine attempts across roughly a week, I managed to get one that claimed to contain "Comments.json", but actually didn't, and one that contained a "+1s on comments.json" with some sane-looking data even though the report overview claimed that it didn't.

There's been a recent update post from DiasporaHQ on new features, which seems semi-inspired by the recent influx of G+ expats: https://joindiaspora.com/posts/12993702 The announcement seems to be taken with a spoonful of scorn in some parts of the Fediverse/ActivityPub world: https://social.nasqueron.org/@deadsuperhero/100948954799049039 Also burried in that thread and semi-related: Hubzilla might lose federation capabilities with Diaspora in the future: "Zap and Osada will not be providing the Diaspora protocol as an option. It is also somewhat unlikely Hubzilla will be able to continue federating with Diaspora when it is upgraded to Zot6. I'll try to preserve the current federation options, but it does not look promising." https://osada.macgirvin.com/item/5828f6b5-f4b7-4929-bc98-67848c2743b7 https://joindiaspora.com/posts/12993702
