Introducing Streamiverse… a simple Mastodon-compatible streaming API of curated posts from the fediverse.

streamiverse.small-web.org

Consume the public API curated/hosted by Small Technology Foundation (for non-commercial and educational use) or host your own.

Mastodon had a public streaming API but it was locked down this year. This gives you back that useful feature (for demos, teaching, etc.) plus you know exactly what you’re getting.

@aral @catileptic do you know why we locked it down? Because that's an important part here

@thisismissem - not sure why i am tagged, i don't work on either the mastodon code base nor on Kitten-related code :)) wish i could help but i effectvely have no idea about these decisions
@aral - awesome work! the growing array of apps and tools you create & maintain are firmly in the "hope for humanity regained" category
