Was looking for an #rstats package and stumbled on @schochastics's #rtoot package for getting R to interact with Mastodon.
It's not my field, but this definitely sparks joy 
Arga StatistikernMitt Fediverse. Graf över vilka servrar på i Fediverse jag interagerar med. Jag följer konton på (mörk grå linje) och jag har följare på (ljus grå linje). Postad med #rtoot #ggplot2 #ggraph #rstats
Big thanks to @schochastics (author, creator, maintainer of #rtoot) and to the rest of the group behind it; @JBGruber, @Kudusch & Chung-hong Chan
Trevor BurrowsAlso posting from #rtoot here, now as a reply. The package is great: auth was easy to set up, function names intuitive, no great surprises yet.
(Only thing so far is... no way to edit posts from the package? But maybe I'm overlooking something.)
test posting from #rtoot in R... pretty nifty!
Steven@schochastics huge thanks! Both for the tip, and #rtoot. I’ll give that a try.
To elaborate - the function get_status() gets the details of a toot - but only seems to return how many times the toot was boosted, but not the details of the boosts. #rtoot #rstats #help #AnalysingMastodon
Trying out the excellent #rtoot to follow ideas spreading on Mastodon.
I think I'm missing something.
Can I find the toot ids of toots that boost a particular toot?
Looks like I have to:
1) Find initial toot id from a timeline - get_account_statuses()
2) Find list of who has boosted toot - get_reblogged()
3) Find list of their toots - get_account_statuses()
4) Find the their boost toots that are boosting the toot id - by matching toot ids
What have I missed?
