⚠️ We are planning to release important security fixes for #Mastodon on July 6th, between 13:00 and 15:00 UTC. They will be available for the 4.1, 4.0 and 3.5 versions as well as a nightly release, to make the upgrade as small and painless for everyone as possible. Be ready to upgrade!
@Mastodon Is it available to change this? It will improve comfort of using mastodon
@Nie_6969 @Mastodon this is more or less "by design" in the way how ActivityPub works. So it will most probably never be fixed...

You can fetch the follower count, you can fetch the people who participated in polls, but you can’t fetch likes & boost statistics as well as posts made in the past on another server?

Excuses! It’s easily possible. Even on a client basis.

I use @michael's #FediFetcher to do this. You can run it as a GitHub action, server, or desktop computer. Basically, set it up and forget about it. It chugs along backfilling new follows/followers, replies to posts, and more.

GitHub - nanos/FediFetcher: FediFetcher is a tool for Mastodon that automatically fetches missing replies and posts from other fediverse instances, and adds them to your own Mastodon instance.

@paul Thanks for the mention! Just to set expecatations: FediFetcher works really well to pull in replies, etc (if I say so myself 🙈), but it can sadly not pull in correct likes / boosts count, as Mastodon doesn't have an API for that 😔

@Erik @Nie_6969 @Mastodon @jr

I will absolutely implement this on #MastodonDE! Wow! Thank you so much.
