@overholt@glammr.us looks like some base64 — anything interesting if you decode it?

@heavyimage@mastodon.social @overholt@glammr.us I tried base64 decoding it, then running it through various likely structured data format candidates, like protobuf, etc. No joy. The entropy is less than what you’d expect for something that’s encrypted or compressed, but more than for text. Since I extracted the base64 from the image, it’s possible there’s a transcription error, but, while I could be arsed to do all the above, I wasn’t about to check every char or instance of I,l,1,O,0, etc.
