It’s in the format of a terminal. The is a “prompt symbol” or what you might call it, essentially it shows at the start of every input line in a (ba)sh terminal. davel has then typed in a prompt, getting a copy of the policy from the website (with curl), decoding it from base64, unziping it, reading the json with gron, and “grepping” (searching) gron’s output for davel or cowbee or yogthos. The two next lines are then the output, the lines that match that search. And then a new line ready for a new prompt.
It’s already done, for 1.0 I think. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5515#discussion_r2004068653
