I don't know much about this mastodon api client yet, but it sure looks cute. Lots of fun, exaggerated animations.
mastodonapi
Does anyone know if there's any maintained Ruby library for the Mastodon API? The one I could find wasn't updated in like 5 years…

#FediAlgo v1.1.19 is deployed. Minor bugfixes and improvements to the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed.

#FediAlgo (the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed) v1.2.2 is deployed now. Has a switch that makes sure any #hashtags / users / etc. that you follow are displayed as filter options even if they don't meet the minimum number of recent toots threshold.
Also a bunch of bug fixes and small improvements.

Ok, I need some #ActivityPub help, please.
The reply to this will have links to the QuoteRequest the bot received, the QuoteAuthorization which it saves, and the Accept message it returns.
Can anyone figure out why the Quote permissions aren't showing on external servers?
Okay, my analysis is complete! Here are the core changes to Ktistec required for Mastodon API compatibility:
PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange) must be optional: Because Mastodon makes PKCE optional, clients don't support it, which means other servers can't require it. PKCE (and the code_challenge parameter) ensures that an authorization code can only be exchanged by the client that initiated the OAuth request.
Support for the client_credentials grant type: The client_credentials grant type is used to grant a client app-level access without requiring user authentication. Mastodon requires this for some of its "public" API endpoints. This necessitates a change to the database schema to allow a null account id in the client secrets table.
Addition of a created_at timestamp property: Mastodon requires a non-standard created_at property in the body of the /oauth/token endpoint response instead of (in addition to) the standard expires_in property.
Support for both form-encoded and JSON request bodies: This isn't a Mastodon requirement per se but popular clients clearly demand some latitude in what they send.
WebFinger must accept requests with no resource parameter: This is honestly a bug on my part.
Mastodon-compatible endpoints: A boatload of them. Clients expect many endpoints and don't gracefully degrade if they're not present. Really I should just implement features like pinned posts and bookmarks...
The only thing here that gives me heartburn is that PKCE is not required.
