Post → status.lol

A lightweight PWA for posting status updates to status.lol (part of the omg.lol ecosystem). Pick an emoji, write a message, and optionally cross-post to Mastodon - all from a simple installable web app.

Your credentials are stored only in your browser's local storage and are never sent anywhere except the omg.lol API.

Clone the repository:

git clone https://git.bkr.im/ritual/status-poster.git
cd status-poster

Serve the files over HTTP:

python3 -m http.server 8000

Open settings (the gear icon), enter your omg.lol username and API key, and save.

That's it.

Deployment

A deploy.sh script is included that you can use as a template for your own if you want. I pull directly from git and this script does that and then busts the bloody cache for me.

./deploy.sh
