Would you be interested in a timeline like on mastodon that is chronological, includes boosts, upvotes, posts and comments from your followings?
I’ve been thinking about adding a new site just called “Timeline” that would do that. It would stand next to Threada and Microblogs.
Glad for any feedback 😊
i think any features that flesh out the ‘other half’ of the fediverse implementation will be a benefit. if this is a popular feature on mastadon, it sounds like a great way to add value to mbin for that audience.
Agreed, a timeline would be a nice addition and would help flesh out the microblog side of things.
Ok, cool. I was torn whether a new page would be better or to improve the existing microblog page. In any sort that is not “newest” it would not make sense to include boosts, likes, comments, etc. within that page.
When creating a new page I can also try to save the position one was in so it does not reset on a reload
I think a combined view is what people have been asking for, this sounds like a filter on the combined view of
subto me.I guess it’s a bit different if you’re wanting to show comments as well. That sounds difficult to do in UX to make the context of a reply make sense, not sure how Mastodon does it, I guess there aren’t super complex tree structures? Because the comment they could be replying to could have nothing to do with the original post, you have to show the entire tree some times
You would only show the comment, completely without the context. If you wanna read the context you gotta click on the comment to see it in the tree
New site or new page? 😅
I’m still interested personally in fixing the search. Eg. I try to copy and past your mbin url from this thread, into my instance. The I won’t give any result. Unless I remove the last ‘Mastodon-like-timeline’ from the URI.

Whats the difference? 😅

I think you only have to add the optional
slugparameter to the ap route 🤔Whats the difference? 😅
A new site -> Means a “new website”, aka creating something new from scratch with a Mastodon like timeline. But I doubt you mean that.
A new page -> Means a new page on an existing website most likely, eg. extending Mbin in this case.
new page obviously :D
Isn’t that what
/sub/microblog/newestis? Or do you mean entry and entry comments as well when you say posts (since the term is a bit overloaded)I meant everything together, yes. The big thing I mean is that it is a timeline, so strictly chronological and there are events like “someone you follow liked x” or “someone you follow boosted y”. And that comments from people you follow appear there as well, like they do on mastodon
