John WhelanReally liking the (very) little bit of Mastodon I’ve seen so far… but still am not sure how to see the various different timelines. Need to put more time and effort into figuring this place out.
Wade Wegner@JohnWhelan the number of 502s i see thrown is somewhat absurd. is perf terrible for you too?
@WadeWegner yes - but from what I gather that may be specific to the server we’re on, and not necessarily Mastodon itself. I’ve found this helpful in better understanding how this all works: https://github.com/joyeusenoelle/GuideToMastodon
@JohnWhelan yeah, i understand. i'm tempted to move to a different server. I've been building an API integration and it's terrible. half the API calls fail.
@WadeWegner same - likely going to look at that tonight when I’ve got more time. I think you can Alia’s accounts or move them? I saw settings for that but not yet sure how it works.
@WadeWegner it seems better now than it was earlier. Give it some time - lots of people (myself included) abandoning birdsite and some associated growing pains. I’d love to learn more about the APIs you’re building…
Vinnie (Any)@JohnWhelan this might help. I did NOT make the chart, but it helps in understanding mastodon.
@greenWhale thanks for sharing! I saw a similar one earlier, too, and I get the concept of the different timelines - I’m just not sure how to see my local timeline vs the federated timeline. That may be because I’m using the mobile app and it seems a little more limited in what you can do?
@JohnWhelan are you on android?
@greenWhale iOS, actually
