@Gargron I know you and the team are going to crush it! Thank for all you’ve done, and I wish you (guys) the best of luck! 🤓 @ocean As someone who has been using Toot! since it came out and is currently still using it, I hope the new app will be better That being said, iPad is not on the target list for the MVP. Sorry! @Gargron That's going to clash with multiple sections of GPLv3. One section forbids applying further restrictions to distributed software, which Apple does. Another section forbids deployment to locked hardware, which iOS devices are. @Gargron I'm curious as to what license you intend on adding. OSLv3 seems like it might work quite well. @Gargron Hey, you going to add direct support for APNs to the Mastodon code base or will you use the relay approach? @Gargron All right, makes sense. It's more flexible with the client keys, and it's been working surprisingly well for me with minimal resource usage. @Gargron Also, what do you think about adding support for cancelling notifications? Now that there is the mark unread functionality in the web UI too, it might make sense to kill notifications that have been marked as read? Doable? @WAHa_06x36 Do you mean somehow sending a cancel event through the Web Push API to hide notifications that have been marked as read on another device? @Gargron Yeah. APNs supports it at least and I vaguely recall seeing something about it in the Web Push spec? |
@Gargron are you looking for any TestFlight beta users 🤓
