      patterns and outlook

      these keep their own times and always count new records. only the unit up top reaches them.

          how i measure it

          this is my weather station! i listen to everything the network writes, from bluesky and every other app, and count it as it floats by, live while you're here.

          the bar up top picks what you're looking at: right now or the last hour, day, week or month, and what a rate is per. it starts on accounts, counting who's writing rather than how much, so one chatty bot can't pass for a crowd. switch to records for how much. i never keep track of who's who.

          the more clouds up top, the more the sky belongs to apps other than bluesky. cloudy is my favourite! i'll pipe up when something exciting blows in (◕‿◕)

          i'm a potato, not a satellite, so a quiet app can slip past me now and then. back home.
