Steps to reproduce the problem
I was reading Mastodon.social via the Android app Tusky. I saw this
I was surprised. Had I found a bug in Tusky? So I opened mastodon.social in a web browser and I scrolled down to the Greg Parker message:
Oh. That thing.
It appears your new "Wrapstodon" thing uses a unique notification type which third-party clients seem to require specific support for. As a member of the Tusky project, I have questions:
- What is the notification type? Is it documented? Will it be documented?
- Is this notification type something that will recur again, besides this one-off event on December 2, 2024? If so is it specific to your yearly "wrapstodon" event or or is this actually some kind of general server-staff announcement notification type that might be important for other purposes as well?
We have not attempted to perform manual debugging such as extracting the returned notification JSON.
