New fedi person advice: pick a server that isn't the biggest server. Pick one that has a cool name. Do this BEFORE you write up twelve thousand posts that won't get moved to whatever new server you end up on that isn't mastodon.social.

Otherwise you'll end up like me.

Twitterers, know your buttons!
The Boost button retoots the boosted toot onto your timeline.
The Star button makes the starred toot's tooter's computer go "Billip." That's it. I had a mate sign up and star all my toots to "help me out with the algorithm" and had to break it to her gently that it just makes my computer go "Billip"
The Bookmark button bookmarks toots for you to pay more attention to later. This is what the Star button was supposed to be for, but nobody used it like that

Mastonaut is now open-source: https://mastodon.technology/@brunoph/108138252725934908

Mastonaut news: I’ve recently decided to make Mastonaut open-source. I no longer have the time and energy needed to maintain the app, and it has started to lag in features and functionality when compared to the Mastodon web client and other apps. The app is now free at the App Store. If you have recently purchased the app at full price, please reach out to App Store support and request a refund. App developers can not process refunds at all, you must go through the App Store support.

Mastodon for Tech Folks

Version 1.3.9 of Mastonaut has just been released which addresses some instance emoji rendering issues on macOS Monterey, plus some small bug fixes:

• Fixes global search menu item not having a shortcut. (⌘⇧F)
• If a user has more than one account with the same display name, Mastonaut now lists the instance domain below the display name in the account pickers.
• Fixes context button in boosts and replies not being clickable.

Thanks for using Mastonaut!

@[email protected] Ah you’re right, the local timeline was obeying filters with the “home and lists” context. I’ll fix this for the next update. Thank you for your help!

@[email protected] Hey! I’m sorry you’re having issues with the filters. Can you please take a screenshot of the filter editor screen in Mastonaut showing the filter you’re having issues with, so I can figure out your exact scenario? It should look like the screenshot I’ve attached to this toot

Hey, a user has contacted me with this same issue, and I was able to identify it as a slight mismatch in the `Account` model. It seems that Mastodon always returns a valid URL for the `header` and `header_static` fields. I can tweak the parser in Mastonaut to expect a nullable URL but I thought of giving you a heads up as this might pop up as an issue in different places as well 😄

@heluecht Hello! Can you provide an example instance for me to investigate?

@toni Hey! I’m sorry you’re having issues. Do you have a crash log you can share? If yes please email it to [email protected]

@[email protected] Hey! Sadly this is not a standard Mastodon feature exposed by the API. However this is a feature that is gonna be included in the next update as a local per-account setting you can set manually from the preferences window.
