# Catstodon ## Introduction This Mastodon fork is based on the [glitch-soc Fork of Mastodon](https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon), with changes made to suit [CatCatNya~](https://catcatnya.com). The aforementioned instance is running the `develop` branch. I intend to contribute some useful differences back to [glitch-soc](https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon) and [vanilla Mastodon](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon). To install, take a look at [glitch-soc.github.io/docs/](https://glitch-soc.github.io/docs/). The instructions and features are the same, except for the differences outlined below. Contributing guidelines are available [here](CONTRIBUTING.md). Note: [CatCatNya~](https://catcatnya.com) runs on the `develop` branch. That branch may, at times, be force-pushed to (mostly for undoing cherry-picking of vanilla commits when upstream adopts them). I highly suggest only ever running the `main` branch in production! ## Differences - Some files are adjusted specifically for the CatCatNya~ instance. Specifically, these: - sounds/boop.mp3 - sounds/boop.ogg
You might want to revert these to the upstream files (or your own versions!) if you decide to use this fork for your own instance. - The web frontend emoji picker is a blobcat instead of the joy emoji. - The rate limits for authenticated users have been relaxed a bit. - The API endpoint `/api/v1/custom_emojis` is no longer affected by AUTHORIZED_FETCH, allowing anyone to copy custom emojis. - Allow higher resolution images. (4096x4096 instead of the previous limit of 1920x1080) - Allow posting polls with only one poll option (if `MIN_POLL_OPTIONS` is set to 1 on your instance). - Added oatstodon flavour (taken from [types.pl fork](https://github.com/ralsei/types.pl), by [@oat@hellsite.site](https://hellsite.site/@oat)) - Emoji reactions on posts, a feature originally developed for [Nyastodon](https://git.bsd.gay/fef/nyastodon). Currently pending [merge into glitch-soc](https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon/pull/1980). ## Previous differences now merged into glitch-soc - Fixed incorrect upload size limit display when adding new a new custom emoji. ([Pull request](https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon/pull/1763)) - Everything merged into vanilla Mastodon ## Previous differences now merged into vanilla Mastodon - The period of retention of IP addresses and sessions was made configurable.
