Föderation EN Do 19.12.2024 05:27:57 @Tuba OK, then I'm just an idiot. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get to that. I'll spend more time with DDG, and hopefully I won't put my foot in my mouth next time I open it! |
Föderation EN Sa 21.12.2024 06:48:54 @Tuba OK, I give up. I'm using 0.9.0 I got off of Flathub, and I can not for the life of me figure out how to get to the admin stuff you showed me. Is there some documentation or something that would treat me like I'm a child and walk me through this step by step? |
Föderation EN Sa 21.12.2024 07:46:09 @mike we need to request admin permissions so when adding your account, click the cog at the end of the instance entry and enable "Admin". After adding the account, there should be an "Admin Dashboard" entry in the main menu! Beware that Mastodon's Admin API is limited compared to what the web client can do so I wouldn't recommend it as a replacement for an instance as big and active as fosstodon. |
Föderation EN Sa 21.12.2024 08:32:26 @Tuba Awesome! I blew away my existing config and re-added it with the Admin option enabled, and it appeared like magic. I really should have tried that sooner. Thank you! Saying that Mastodon's Admin API is "limited" is pretty diplomatic. Still, I really appreciate someone making an effort. Thank you! |
