Join Mastodon

Ahoy everyone again,

due to more recent developments I would like to try to give this a new drive.

On the issue of Friendica:
May I propose something, since administration seems to be a bit difficult as far as I can tell from this thread.

  1. The PPDE does maintain a Friendica server(piratenpartei.social), which we can do very well since it is maintained by one of the Friendica developers(who is also a Pirate).
    Why dont we merge efforts into one for the PPEU as a whole?
    I am very certain that everyone involved could be swayed to join forces.
    My idea would be that you(PPEU) mandate our Friendica admin or the PPDE as a whole to spin up a PPEU Friendica server. (While the PPDE server would be shut down and migrated/merged or maintained alongside(if not too much of a burden)).
    That would wrap up our main Friendica issue.
  2. On the issue of Friendica integration to social media managers,
    I am currently working on this with our Friendica developer.
    As it seems either of these issues is currently our road blocker: API: verify_credentials can be called with any scope by annando · Pull Request #15557 · friendica/friendica · GitHub or Mastodon OAuth fails on instances that don't support 'profile' scope · Issue #1245 · gitroomhq/postiz-app · GitHub
    As you can see one has already been merged so I will know if this has been fixed soon.
    TL;DR: Friendica should soon be able to integrate (mostly) with all applications that support the Mastodon API(and in particular we will make sure it works with Postiz).
