Time to join the world of #bloomscrolling

Properly diving in to my birthday present, The Culture Drawings compiled from Iain Banks’ archive.

What now seems obvious is that if you’re constructing a world in this way, of *course* you need to sketch out the details of all sorts of things (aliens, ships, weapons, ship rotas, orbitals…) so that you can keep a reference manual to come back to. If you have a sketch of the thing in front of you, you can write about it as if it exists… because in a way it does.

OK, #Mastodon question which has been bugging me.

Is it possible to restrict your timeline by ... time? Like "12h ago to 4 hours ago". Other than by scrolling scrolling scrolling, keep them thumbwheels scrolling, rawhide ...

I'll take answers that apply to Mastodon web, or Android apps Mastodon or #Tusky or #Megalodon. Or in fact anything.

I'm also up for coding this in #Python using the #mastodonapi. But I suspect the protocol may not encode time.
