Gregory's Server@ivory could you tell us why we can't use you with other Mastodon API (I can't stress this enough: I am talking about servers that adhere to Mastodon API specifications, precisely to take advantage of clients that only work with Mastodon APIs) alike ActivityPub servers? That truly limits your user base.

@ivory thank you so much for the explanation. Each time I've reached out in the past you have not let me down (customer service wise), and I truly appreciate that.
I look forward for that time to come; you have a certain, latent, waiting customer in me.  @david We would absolutely love to get more customers and we know this issue prohibits many from using our app. It's just going to require a lot of dedicated time to do and right now we have to get new features out to our current subscribers. There will be a time when Ivory is feeling much more mature and we'll have more time to take on these issues. 🙂 |
@david Because our app is based on Twitter and the whole system is designed around numeric post ID's. We were able to quickly pivot to Mastodon because it also only uses numeric post ID's. Some other ActivityPub services use AlphaNumeric ID's which completely fail in our app because it wasn't designed for them. We plan to look into what it's going to take to redo our low level systems to support them when we have more time.
