This Mastodon fork is based on the glitch-soc Fork of Mastodon, with changes made to suit CatCatNya~. The aforementioned instance is running the develop branch. I intend to contribute some useful differences back to glitch-soc and vanilla Mastodon.

To install, take a look at glitch-soc.github.io/docs/. The instructions and features are the same, except for the differences outlined below.

Contributing guidelines are available here.

Note: CatCatNya~ runs on the develop branch. That branch may, at times, be force-pushed to (mostly for undoing cherry-picking of vanilla commits when upstream adopts them). I highly suggest only ever running the main branch in production!

• Some files are adjusted specifically for the CatCatNya~ instance. Specifically, these:
  • sounds/boop.mp3
  • sounds/boop.ogg
    You might want to revert these to the upstream files (or your own versions!) if you decide to use this fork for your own instance.
• The web frontend emoji picker is a blobcat instead of the joy emoji.
• The rate limits for authenticated users have been relaxed a bit.
• The API endpoint /api/v1/custom_emojis is no longer affected by AUTHORIZED_FETCH, allowing anyone to copy custom emojis.
• Allow higher resolution images. (4096x4096 instead of the previous limit of 1920x1080)
• Allow posting polls with only one poll option (if MIN_POLL_OPTIONS is set to 1 on your instance).
• Added oatstodon flavour (taken from types.pl fork, by @[email protected])
• Emoji reactions on statuses (with both Unicode and custom emojis, same as for announcements), a feature originally developed for Nyastodon. Ended up as a Catstodon-maintained patch after its initial two Pull Requests to glitch-soc, and is now pending its third attempt of merging into glitch-soc.

• Fixed incorrect upload size limit display when adding new a new custom emoji. (Pull request)
• Everything merged into vanilla Mastodon

• The period of retention of IP addresses and sessions was made configurable. (Pull request)
