  • Hokay, I've launched a webapp at https://discoverfedi.app

    What's it do?

    - Let's you browse the federated timeline of a selected instance (use the change instance button to switch to something else, with mastodon.social being the default)
    - Can switch to image-only view for a more "instagram" kind of feels
    - Search the entire federated network (uses the fedi observer api, is a bit wonky and am still working out the kinks)
    - Search hashtags on the instance you're currently viewing
    - Save the instance you're viewing to "favorites" (stored as a cookie)
    - Show/hide NSFW content
    - Uses GardenFence to block harmful instances from being accessed in the search and display (although blocked content may show up in an instance's federated timeline, this is one of those dents in the development that need un-dented)
    - Light and dark theme changed manually, or adjusted to system settings
    - Requires no logon credentials, no registration, since many many many instances are publicly visible
    - Works nice on a phone

    Issues:
    - Some instances may return an error
    - Some instances may not display properly, especially across different software
    - Search is a bit funky

    Why?

    People outside of the fediverse always complaining about how difficult it is to see what the heck the fediverse is, or choose servers. Well, the problem? There's well over 20,000+ servers, and this may or may not fix the issue of "finding things" lol

    This could be an iOS/Android app, but I don't feel like paying Apple or Google money for dev accounts

    @cmdr_nova oh that's interesting. I used to use mastovue for that but with glitch.me shutting down I was looking for something else.

    @cmdr_nova great tool, but I don't see sociale.network there. It's because our server settings or are you filtering small instances?

    @gubi I'm still working out some issues with the search function, but if you type sociale.network into the "change instance" dialogue, it should show you the timeline easy peasy

    @cmdr_nova the procedure you suggested is working, but the "find instance" search returns empty results for sociale.network...
