Episode 554: Get Yourself Into a Pickle 4x132i

Manton asks Daniel about MarsEdit 5.1’s progress, particular about the forthcoming ability to post to Mastodon. They talk about some shortcomings of Mastodon’s API, and Daniel’s effort to submit a pull request that remedies one such shortcoming. Finally, they talk about Manton’s resistance to considering Mastodon a “real blogging platform”, itemize the features that prevent it from being one, and wonder about how it might evolve in the future. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/coreint/CoreInt_554.mp3 Audio (MP3, 45 minutes) Many thanks to our sponsor this week: RevenueCat: In-app subscriptions made easy.
