I need to work out what format HTML Mastodon needs to render profile fields properly.
Specifically hashtags and mentions.
Anyone know?

Hey #mastodonapi people - I have a question about profile attachments.
This says they can be hyperlinks
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/activitypub/#PropertyValue
But it doesn't say how Mastodon determines something is a hashtag or a mention.
The JSON it sends back has `rel="tag"` for the […]

I finally did it!
I've been linking my blog posts here recently to get more readers, but mostly because I wanted to integrate Mastodon directly into my site as my comment engine.
The system is now live. Replies to this post will appear on my blog!

Gotcha. Probably doesn't help that this is the top search result for ActivityPub client-to-server. Do you know why Mastodon implemented its own API rather than build off this?

Ah, wild shot, but is anyone using the fairly outdated mastodon-api node.js library?
https://github.com/vanita5/mastodon-api
Seems like the "streaming/user" no longer works?
Maybe it's really time to switch to something else.

The delete is because a user has been deleted.

This would enable you to search for posts made *only* by those you follow.

If you are able to see the list of followers for the account @bot please let me know.
Mastodon is picking up the *number* of followers, but it won't show *who* is following and I'm trying to debug why.

What are the *technical* steps behind moving a Mastodon account?
I understand how to do it from a user perspective (https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/#move) but what does the new server need to do?
Is it as simple as adding an "aliases" to the webfinger?

Hello #mastodonapi and #activitypub friends.
I've created a bot which has several test cases for you to try: @test_posts
If you've built something which consumes posts, this will (I hope) give you some confidence that everything renders correctly.
Are there any other types of posts you think […]

If you use the #mastodonapi, I would like your feedback.
I've created an account which posts example posts - useful for testing how your code renders responses from the API.
Take a look at:
@test_posts
What other sort of posts would you like to see on there?

Another #mastodonapi question.
Is there a good set of "reference posts"?
That is, a set of example toots which cover the gamut of what they can do.
One with an image, one with a content warning, one with poll etc.
Sort of like a reference suite for testing.
