I really wish @PixelFed@pixelfed.social added a mention of the account we reply too, in comments.
This is a reply to @accudio@mastodon.scot from my Pixelfed account @nhoizey@pixelfed.social , but it looks like a brand new toot in Mastodon.

Let's POSSE to Mastodon with a Feed and a GitHub Action
After building a Node script for my own POSSE needs, I thought it would be good if other people could also use it. I knew not many people would be able to use the script as-is, so I built a GitHub Action that is much simpler to use, without losing any feature, even gaining some!

Why Mastodon is defying the “critical mass”
