"We want to bring organisations and content creators into the Fediverse, step by step."

Our Foundation co-founder has just published an interesting piece on how we're working to help organisations and content creators find their way to the Fediverse!

For more information on what we plan to do as a charity and how Patchwork, a new service we'll be launching soon, can help 👇

"oh nice, #mastoDev has a professional design team, this will allow them to keep closer interaction with the community since programmers can focus on code while the professional design team participates in community discussions and respond to accessibility criticism with valuable feedback from users."

In the last few weeks, I have been trying to organise the #Mastodon development work, so our (very small!) resources are used efficiently. This led us to a tentative roadmap for Mastodon 4.3, with a (very optimistic) release date before Christmas.

Here are the main items ⤵️

#mastodev


Fellow Masto Admins,
Kindly upgrade to the latest release of Mastodon as soon as possible.

#mastodon #mastodev #mastoadmin #security #fediverse #cve


New feature in Mastodon 4.2 that I am very happy about: non-dismissable and very red notices for server admins when there is a new security update available.

We also sent emails to admin. This is all done locally by your instance, it (anonymously) fetches the available updates from the central api.joinmastodon.org every 30 minutes.

hey #mastodev could y'all just rename "suspend" to "irrevocably delete" and avoid 90% of the mod meta drama right out of the gate? maybe then add a new "suspend" that, i don't know, suspends the account?

thanks

(feel free to submit this as a tootsuite github issue; i believe i'm still banned)


It works!!!!!!!! An API Endpoint to post statuses directly into lists so people can make their own #DIYAlgorithms . Now some cleanup and a bit of UX stuff but i can't believe i actually wrote code in #Ruby i am proud of myself. 😀
#MastoDev
Jupyter notebook of two API requests, one to make a list and the second to get posts from the federated feed. (these are standard APIs on masto so not adding exhaustive alt text). The output from getting posts from the federated feed shows one post from me on neuromatch.social One more check is that we can get the list timeline from the standard list API method, and we can!!!!
Two more API calls, these ones are new: both use the /api/v1/lists/:list_id/statuses endpoint. The first is a POST adding a status by its ID, and the second is seeing what posts exist for the list. We can see that the post we got from the federated feed is now on our list! Just a screenshot from the mastodon interface this time showing that the post is indeed in the list we just created.

Content warning: Mastodon meta


Working on something I've wanted to do for a long time but never got around to... putting graphs on the admin dashboard.

Work in progress #mastodev
Screenshot of the admin dashboard taken from mastodon.online, it displays tiles with sparklines that show new users, active users, interactions, reports opened, and reports resolved for the period between Sep 11 and Oct 11, with a percentage comparison to the past period, as well as a user retention chart below


I hear you might like automated #activitypub test suites.

Also #mastodev question: I can't get calls on the Inbox to succeed. 🙁
