At least, I followed best practices from © regulations and recent court cases to determine the Opt-Out status of the top websites:
➜ ~86% are opted out of TDM,
➜ +5% require non-commercial use.

There are two reasons this case has taken a turn:
1) Meta employees are straightforward confessing when deposed, even as interviewer lacked knowledge.
2) Lawfirm accused of being "unable or unwilling" to litigate by judge (malpractice) was partly replaced.

Since Mastodon 4.2 nerfed the streaming of public or federated timelines from servers, it's been impossible to keep the @arxiv bots going as originally intended: boosting on-topic posts from across the Fediverse.

Trying out relay servers, but they are very conservative in letting you stream posts, and few servers opt-in...

Thinking the best option may be to create accounts+tokens on popular servers?

Turns out the 4,2 update of Mastodon has closed up the streaming API end-point that the bots relied on to get their updates.

There are ways to access this with OAuth tokens, but unfortunately due to a bug it doesn't work for clients (only registered users).

Not sure how to fix this yet. If anyone is willing to spend 250-500 EUR on a bounty, there's a developer willing to fix the client authentication bug!

The rig that powers the @arxiv bots had some trouble earlier in the week, so can't resume operations without some additional work on my part... No ETA unfortunately.

(I think it'd be best to use an online API now instead of Galactica anyway. Perplexity's beta API is great!)
