Does @ivory have automatic timeline refresh? Asking for a friend...😝every time I download it, it hijacks mastodon links like it owns them. I use several Mastodon apps and I don't like this behavior so I tend to uninstall when I get annoyed with it.
@BeAware Yes it does (but not live streaming yet). And it's not the client hijacking links. It's Mastodon.social using universal links and has Ivory set as one of the clients that can accept them. There's a process to disable that. You can read it here (2. Deactivate Mastodon's Universal Link.) https://tapbots.com/support/ivory/tips/safariextension
Also, I was under the impression that automatic timeline refresh and "live streaming" would be the same thing. Can you tell me how they differ? If that's not too much trouble...😅
@BeAware Live streaming is how it works on your mastodon website. Each posts comes in as the server receives them. Ours currently automatically refreshes every few minutes. We plan to add the streaming service in the future.
@ivory ah okay. I am looking for something like the Live streaming feature. I'm on a small instance and worried about the spam so I've been watching my federated timeline like a hawk, but refreshing every minute or so manually is tiring.
Maybe this will be good enough for the time until I can find an app with that feature or ya'll add it in the app.👍thanks for all the info. Much appreciated
