    @eniko it's interesting to see how things shape up differently depending on perspective and use case. To embed the RSS feeds of my Fedi accounts on my website, the JS is just a trivial “call this XSLT on this XML”, and I would actually do without the JS if there was a way to, but I'm limited to the number of entries in the RSS and I don't even think it's possible to get user-specific tags via RSS at all. OTOH, once one has to use the API, JS for everything (like in your case) makes more sense.

    @julian @box464 There's actually already an Android app that allows all this: Raccoon for Friendica (which actually also works for Mastodon).Raccoon for Friendica is a rather unique app, one I'm very fond of, because it perfectly illustrates how the best ideas come from the "contamination" of different environments. Here's an article about Raccoon that should be updated, which I wrote a few weeks after the app's beta release (launched in late August 2024)Raccoon for Friendica was developed by @akesiseli after he had already developed an Android client for Lemmy (Raccoon for Lemmy).When he focused on Friendica, he faced the problem of how to translate Friendica's ability to display group conversations into an app (they're quite visible on Friendica's web interface, though they don't have the clearest interface possible like Lemmy's or forum platforms like NodeBB and Discourse). He ported the "topic view" feature already present in Lemmy's apps to Friendica!Since Raccoon is an app that also works with Mastodon, @akesiseli attempted to "force" Mastodon to have the same interface, and after a few attempts, he succeeded perfectly.Raccoon for Friendica still has a few imperfections (search isn't 100% functional, it still doesn't handle resharing with quoting, and other minor glitches, and feed capture is still a bit slow compared to Tusky and Fedilab), but despite being just over a year old, it's a decidedly mature app. Most importantly, it offers group viewing features that no other app offers. And—trust me!—group viewing isn't the only new feature Raccoon has brought to a social media client!I hope the app's development continues well, although I'm a little concerned: the developer is a bit disappointed that almost no one uses his app... But this is mostly due to the fact that the app has a name that appeals to Friendica users (who are very few) and that even the most established apps for Mastodon suffer from competition from an "official" app!
