Last year, I created a 'wrapped' version for Mastodon, summarising your activity over the past year. As it used the Mastodon API, not all Fediverse software could use it. This year, I have built a proper Fediverse bot with @botkit.

The logic is the same. If you mention the bot, @fediwrapped_en, it will search your public outbox. This outbox usually contains all the content you posted. This data is then used to create a summary of the previous year.

One tile shows the length of your longest post. It may exceed the character limit on your Mastodon server. This is because Mastodon counts every URL as 23 characters and every emoji as one, including emojis made up of several characters, such as flags. The wrapped version counts the full text.

The bot does not work with all Fediverse software because some do not put your posts in a public outbox, such as Lemmy and PieFed. @pixelfed has a public outbox for each account, but this only contains the total number of posts, not the posts themselves.

The repo is here: github.com/54GradSoftware/fedi
