I've a big whish. Please add the possibility to follow a single person from another instance (which is potentially blocked by my instance), via the timeline feature.
It's possible to follow a complete Mastodon instance with #fedilab, but it would be nice to follow only a single account (like @potus), because following @threads.net makes no sense (for me).
@beandev
Yeah, what your saying doesn't make any sense. Its the be equivalent of asking Outlook to let you get emails from yourmom@pornhub.cum even though you're compony IT blocks all email from pornhub on the server side. @apps
I'm sure, @apps knows what I mean. The functionality in Fedilab bypass the AP protocol and uses the API access to request the profile timeline directly (like with other instance TL access).
@beandev@Fu
Yes, it's possible to use the public API to display messages.
It can be interesting when you want to follow and sometimes quote (share) messages.
That said, it's just a helper because if you add ".rss" to the end of the profile URL of an account, you can follow accounts with your RSS feed reader.
