In case you’re not aware - I’m working with the Mastodon team on #DevRel and community 🚀

If you’re building a client on the #MastodonAPI I would love to get connected and help you stay up-to-date. Drop me a line andy@joinmastodon.org and let me know what you’re working on! 🙏🏻

(pls boost for reach / tell the devs of your fave apps)

@andypiper I've been very casually playing with the concept, but I'm not really at anywhere worth talking about :)

@andypiper This is some of the best news I've read in a while! Congrats!

@andypiper I am a person who will use everything that's accessible, except mona, as it's expensive as hell.

@andypiper just sent you an email. I'm working on an android client app!

@andypiper I'm not sure about the future of #DOStodon, but just don't break DOS compatibility in the API and I'm happy 🤣

Andy Piper

@dec_hl do you know what "DOS compatibility" requires? It's such a cool project 😊

SuperIlu

@andypiper well, most challenging is to work around unicode (#DOjS and therefore #DOStodon do not support unicode) and to support TLS.
the later is less a problem of the API but more of how the HTTP servers are configured.

Also: media types are problematic. Theoretically I could play back GIF animations, but because these are served as mp4 in Mastodon I can't do anything sensible.
Serving webp or other 'modern' image formats would be problematic as well...

Andy Piper

@dec_hl I mean I'm not aware of anything in the pipeline that would break those workarounds, will try to keep it all in mind.

@andypiper Mammoth for IOS and IPadOS. Mona for Mac. Mammoth is available for Mac, however it’s still very touch oriented.

No worries on the email reply at all, nothing urgent just reaching out

Amazed for the fast switch Andy, I can imagine the struggles, thus now the joy, so towards it!
