Catstodon

Introduction

This Mastodon fork is based on the glitch-soc Fork of Mastodon, with changes made to suit CatCatNya~. The aforementioned instance is running the develop branch. I intend to contribute some useful differences back to glitch-soc and vanilla Mastodon.

To install, take a look at glitch-soc.github.io/docs/. The instructions and features are the same, except for the differences outlined below.

Contributing guidelines are available here.

Note: CatCatNya~ 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, by @oat@hellsite.site)
  • RSS feeds have titles again.
    • Account RSS feeds show the CW (if applicable).
    • Tag RSS feeds show the handle (username if local, username@domain if remote) and the CW (if applicable).
  • Emoji reactions on posts, developed by [https://git.bsd.gay/fef/nyastodon]. Currently pending merge into glitch-soc.
