[CASTBACK] This week in my spare time I've continued building castback, a /cli command line tool that backs up all of a user's farcaster casts, and enables searches. I built this because I found myself always trying to find *that old cast I made last month*. - Caches all casts from any FID to filesystem: no need to keep pulling data over API. Can easily update your backup with the most recent batch of casts only. - Searches and provides link to cast. - Uses @airstack.eth API, so users don't need a hub, just a free API key. (It took a while since we spoke first about it @betashop.eth but I did finally get around to building with the API, thanks!) I'll open source and release it once it's all done, but it's working well already! (Highly recommend checking airstack if you want to do farcaster dev quickly with minimal fuss! 🙏)

I love this too, but images in ascii mode are just alphanumerics - you won’t be able to tell what the image was. Don’t get me wrong, this local backup idea is fantastic. I guess I have a question for @arfonzo - does the backup render the images in a window for viewing your backed up content?

Thanks so much frenpai! U know I actually started working on a terminal client for farcaster? Didn't get far though. Maybe one day I'll pick it up again. And yes it ascii'd every image... Well moreso ANSI'd. Is a bigger project tho, and no time these days!
