Has anybody played with the Mastodon API? It looks to be pretty straightforward but there's always a gotcha lurking. I hope to get some time to beat on it toward the end of the week. If I learn anything interesting, I'll report back here.

@lePetomaneAncien Im the admin of this instance. We are a fork of mastodon with quite a few special features. I did all the coding to bring those features in (though in many cases I pulled the features in from pull requests on core code).... So yea, obviously ive worked with the API and source before.

If you wanna play with our code here its all open source and we have some docker containers to make it easy to play with.

@freemo Thanks. I'm not good enough to dig into a large, complex code base. I just want to see if I can automate some actions like posting an update from an IOT-connected sensor.
