On logging in, don't get a new access token if there's one in the database
for this user. Log out link wipes the user's session, but not their database
entry. Those can be cleaned up periodically (after I add a last-used stamp).

Misfeature: user's setting is deleted, too, because it was only in the session.

Brutaldon

Brutaldon is a brutalist, Web 1.0 web interface for Mastodon. It is not a Mastodon-compatible social networking server; rather, it is just a client, like the Android or iOS client for Mastodon you may already be using, but it runs in a web server, and is accessed through a web browser. The web browser that brutaldon targets is Lynx. Of course, you can use it in a more heavy-weight graphical browser, as well as other text browsers such as w3m or elinks.

Brutaldon is not ready for use yet.

Roadmap

  • Single user read-only access; log in and read home timeline
  • Fix edge cases of toot display (CW, media, boosts)
  • Multi-user, multi-instance support
  • Add support for reading local and federated timelines, notifications, favorites, threads
  • Add support for tag timelines
  • Add support for viewing profiles
  • Add support for posting.
  • Add support for posting media.
  • Add support for favoriting and boosting toots.
  • Add support for following, blocking, and muting users.

Aesthetic

No automatic page updates: refresh the page to see new toots. No endless scroll: there's a "next page" link. No autocompletion of anything: use another lynx process in another screen window to look things up. UTF8 clean.
