I'd suggest that the -o argument should be usable with either a directory or file parameter.

If given a filename, it should have the extension html and should not exist.

If given a directory, it should exist, and the filename should give some information about the run-conditions (like scorer used, timestamp, and time range, for instance).

I truly appreciate the interest in iterating on this tool. I hope folks can find home in their unique forks. Please see the update in the readme:

⚠️ Update, 2023-05-21: Mastodon Digest is currently in maintenance-only mode. I do not have the capacity to continue fielding feature requests or PRs that fundamentally alter the way the tool works. If you have an idea for a new feature, forks are encouraged. I will continue to push updates for bug or security fixes. If you're looking for options that are more actively maintained, I suggest: Fediview or this fork. I'm heartened by how much positive attention this got among many Mastodon communities. For me this was always a toy. I'm glad I could push some open source code that gave people room to experiment.
