   Is it planned to allow "Follow Instance" for #pixelfed instances with #fedilab?

   I tried it, but the timeline is empty. 🤔

     It should work unless the instance has no public timeline.

     I need to check but it seems that api/v1 requires an authentication. Maybe it works with the web API.

     @beandev OK. They use the web api with this endpoint:

     https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/routes/web-api.php#L98

     There is no pagination but this seems the only timeline working without token.

     So we will add it for Pixelfed.

     I tested several endpoints all required an authentication. Nothing is public by default now.

     It would be fine to have a public access, w/o creating several accounts. 😊

     @beandev The web ui uses this endpoint "api/pixelfed/v2/discover/posts/trending?range=daily" that does not require authentication.
     We can use the same with the app.

     But this is just a "discover feature". It is no longer possible to look at public timelines.

     That means, the web UI shows the images, but it's not possible to access it via the REST api?

     So Follow Instance makes no sense at all. 🙄
