Mastodon client for DOS (Announce)

I started working on a Mastodon-Client for MS-DOS using my other project DOjS.

So far you can log in, view your timeline and notifications and you can post.

A first source drop is here: https://github.com/SuperIlu/DOStodon

Some screenshot are here: https://mastodon.social/@dec_hl/109332113914967745

While I have zero desire to use mastodon nor any other
of the several 'social media' sites...

I congratulate you on making a DOS program that can access it.

VERY FINE WORK !!!

Of all the possible choices, this is the lesser evil. (imho)

Also, will be nice to have peer-tube client.
(i am had made many regular anonymous streams, before war, with peer-tube)

Nice attempt. I don't know Mastodon but as I looked at some picture the client looks very similar to Telegram.
BTW any possibility of making a minimal Telegram DOS/portable port that can at least send and receive text messages? Even in textmode. AFAIK it should be some kind of opensource but there's no longer even (fully) working client for WinXP :(

If there is public documentation for a REST API or something that should be possible...
