Is this a problem on my end or is it Mastodon?

I follow 4 jillion hashtags, I think, but I can't review them, I can only see and delete the first 4 tags. Is there a way to see and edit all the tags I'm following?

Also, I think the column is only showing me posts with the H5N1 tag, which I do follow.

I'm using the web version, I remember trying some Android apps and not being able to solve this.

Serious question: is there an accessibility problem with Fediverse signups that require approval?

Is there any practical reason to remove the approval process?

(EDIT: Assume that CAPTCHA is switched off, as it's a separate setting in Mastodon's admin section.)

My question is pretty simple. I want to create my own social media based on activitypub for learning purposes.

I usually prefer C or Python for programming languages, even though I'm not an expert.

The question is, would someone create a list or to-do list? What should I do?

I think I finally got my Instagram scraper script working well. It grabs the latest post from an IG account and shares it to my GoToSocial instance. It marks the post ID so it doesn't share the same post twice. However, the problem is pinned posts. Those will always be the top post on the account, breaking the functionality of the script.

The instaloader python module can't handle pinned posts anymore because IG removed the 'pinned_for_users' value from the post metadata. So instead I have it set up to skip the top 3 posts, which is the max number of pinned posts on IG. So it just grabs the newest post after the first 3. This works for Sleep Token because they generally always have 3 pinned posts, but for accounts that only have 1 or 2 pinned posts, it will skip 1 or 2 non-pinned posts.

I'm not sure how to handle this better. If anyone has any ideas, I'm open to suggestions.

Any recommendations for computer keyboards that are nice to type on and won't break straight away?

(Bonus points for low price as my budget is limited, and also if possible backlit keys as I sometimes need to work with lights dimmed.)

Hey people, can I ask advice?

The site for my other account @FediFollows is at fedi.directory, it's an old-style web directory but for Fediverse accounts.

The current version is built on independently-hosted WordPress software, but can't help feeling like there might be a better fit with other software?

I can't do it static as it needs the search function. Also can't install/update software manually, it needs to be managed hosting.

Any ideas?
