New blog post: "Introducing Pinafore for Mastodon" https://nolanlawson.com/2018/04/09/introducing-pinafore-for-mastodon/
Pinafore is an alternative web client for Mastodon that I'm releasing today. The goal is to make a lightweight standalone web app that can plug into multiple instances, with a UI focused on speed and simplicity.
Pinafore is still beta-quality in places, but it's already the main client @ElfLord and I have been using for the past few weeks. I've been working on it since the start of this year. Hope y'all like it. 😊
@selfagency Svelte is awesome. I could probably write a whole blog post about how much I love Svelte. It's similar to VueJS but does a really good job of compiling down to a "minimal" JS frontend.
@nolan awesome. can't wait to give it a go. out of curiosity, why not have a dropdown menu to switch between instances in pinafore instead of burying it under settings? also, what about a merged TL that has all instances and lets you choose which account to write/reply from when tooting, including multiple accts, like buffer?
@selfagency Easier instance switching is on the roadmap. I think you should be able to tap your profile picture to switch between them. https://github.com/nolanlawson/pinafore/issues/11
