Is it planned to allow "Follow Instance" for #pixelfed instances with #fedilab?

I tried it, but the timeline is empty. 🤔

It should work unless the instance has no public timeline.

Ah, understand. Thank you

I need to check but it seems that api/v1 requires an authentication. Maybe it works with the web API.

Fedilab Apps
OK. They use the web api with this endpoint:

https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/routes/web-api.php#L98

There is no pagination but this seems the only timeline working without token.

So we will add it for Pixelfed.

Follow Pixelfed instances

This endpoint should be used now: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/routes/web-api.php#L98 It needs to be used with param `range` having `daily|monthly` https://github.

It would be fine to have a public access, w/o creating several accounts. 😊

I tested several endpoints all required an authentication. Nothing is public by default now.

That means, the web UI shows the images, but it's not possible to access it via the REST api?

So Follow Instance makes no sense at all. 🙄
Fedilab Apps
The web ui uses this endpoint "api/pixelfed/v2/discover/posts/trending?range=daily" that does not require authentication.
We can use the same with the app.

But this is just a "discover feature". It is no longer possible to look at public timelines.
Aljoscha Rittner (beandev)
Maybe an alternative.
