@fedicat@pc.cafe That's fair. I know other platforms extend the Mastodon API, but I've been reluctant to do the same. It doesn't feel like a surface that's meant to be extended, and I'd rather not pile more non-standard behavior on top of an API that's already a moving target.

    @hongminhee@hollo.social Yeah, and it seems to me the Mastodon API has evolved with a willful ignorance of what other platforms have added, e.g. when they added a quote post field they clobbered the quote post extension already added by other platforms.
