#mastodev

is there any chatroom for mastodon client devs? IRC or matrix or similar? i often run into problems i figure are common to client devs...

question for people- for the accessible description of an emoji, would you expect it to say the skin tones?

for instance, "women holding hands" vs "women holding hands: light skin tone, medium-light skin tone"

personally the latter feels very verbose, but i'd love to get thoughts!

more fun emoji stuff! i pulled all servers from joinmastodon.org that responded to my cURL requests and checked the custom emoji counts.

top three:
- tech.lgbt: 6,590
- devianze.city: 8,268
- donphan.social: 9,806

first day back working done! excited to get back into emoji nonsense, this time redoing the picker.

but first: search! it's veryyyy tempting to go over the top with Levenshtein distances and such, but i will resist the overkill approach

i *am* very excited to try and add renaming custom emojis and emoji categories tho...

Le père 🎅 a déposé un NAS Ugreen DH2300 dans mes chaussons 🤗 mais il n'a pas de client de synchro pour linux 😨
J'ai cherché sur la 🕸️ si à tout hasard un dev avait fait quelque chose (surtout que c'est du debian dedans à priori)...je n'ai pas trouvé.
Une idée alternative pour contourner le problème ?

Been getting double-posting issues on mastodon.social server here. Quite embarrassing having to delete the duplicate replies.

Thought could be a Phanpy bug but seems unlikely because Phanpy implements `Idempotency-Key` (https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/statuses/#headers:~:text=this%20API%20method.-,Idempotency%2DKey,-Provide%20this%20header). *Could* likely happen because Phanpy also have a fallback try/catch logic for servers that don't support `Idempotency-Key` 🤔

Hard to debug on the spot as the issue happens randomly.

I need opinions on #Smithereen API.

For notifications, which format would you prefer more, this https://smithereen.software/docs/api/methods/notifications.get/ or something even more deduplicated with `wall_posts`, `comments`, `photos`, and `board_topics` as separate arrays? Or maybe something else?

dedicated fields for things like pronouns would be nice, because it would be easier for clients to use them

currently some just search for the word "pronoun" in one of the addition fields, but then there's also needing to figure out support for other languages too... (what am considering is finding the pronoun word based on the post's set language)

#MastoDev #Fediverse

Fediway brings algorithmic feeds to Mastodon.

(Found it on Reddit. Haven't tried it yet.)

#mastodon #fediverse #mastodev #mastoadmin #fediway

Calling all #fediverse developers for help: I'm currently trying to implement a #reporting ( #flag) feature for Hackers' Pub, an #ActivityPub-enabled community for software engineers. Is there a formal specification for how cross-instance reporting should work in ActivityPub? Or, is there any well-documented material that explains how the major implementations handle it?
