(Eg one of my favourite features of FediFetcher is that it pro-actively pulls in replies to posts in my home timeline. I personally wouldn&#39;t really want to miss out on this.)<br/><br/>Secondly, FediFetcher can also backfill profiles - something that Mastodon is still unable to do, and, as far as I can tell, has no intention of implementing.<br/><br/>Thirdly, it&#39;ll likely still be a while until these changes are available in any released versions, and likely even longer until 3rd party apps have support for it.<br/><br/>I do hope it’s the beginning of the end of FediFetcher, but imo we are not there just yet!<br/><br/>Obviously other users of FediFetcher may have different opinions, and if - once this is released - you personally are happy with Mastodon&#39;s built in ‘on demand&#39; context fetch, you should stop using FediFetcher to relieve pressure from your home instance.<br/><br/>#mastoadmin #fedifetcher 2025-03-12T16:25:54Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyfksemyz8n55nr8s8kry307grcwjczvycp4xxfnuj0kksyjj797czypa9c8wxf5xjjr5mmdarca8484x68pkmkdqj8wg9sdfltg7txe3hw8d0xll Looks like Mastodon is finally getting some built in functionality to fetch missing replies:<br/><br/><a href="https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/32615">https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/32615</a><br/><br/>🥳<br/><br/>#mastoadmin #fedifetcher 2025-03-12T09:36:54Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqg2dl3ym675a3825dsn0chzy8dw9rxpyg2xwmv2gx3zdgthx997qzypa9c8wxf5xjjr5mmdarca8484x68pkmkdqj8wg9sdfltg7txe3hw90c02d In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsp2lfnuq2xj86e85yhaul7m2t659zd5c4rhcsmahlqjy8vwrvn4jc6nkws2'>nevent1q…kws2</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>inthinknthey are inherently flawed.

I have no idea on how much that alcohol specifically contributes to accidents, but I would make two points in the defence of this:<br/><br/>Firstly, truckers often have fairly long breaks at these (eg they mustn’t drive for more than 10 hours per day, so that alone leads to plenty of breaks of about 14 hours length). Doesn’t seem implausible for a trucker to have a beer or two at the beginning of their break, and be perfectly fit to drive at the end of it. Don’t know if that’s the same in Canada, obviously. <br/><br/>Secondly, plenty of cars have passengers. 2025-01-02T08:10:37Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsy9lfksqcxemage6xqa6hkpsm6quqlpx8fu00kapzdynm2t0a3ztqzypa9c8wxf5xjjr5mmdarca8484x68pkmkdqj8wg9sdfltg7txe3hw0fhpag In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdr7pzzk5dfae2cguyppsn582ktteewunjevdusjj40s069jups7qsje07p'>nevent1q…e07p</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Surely anything is gonna be better than FediFetcher 😬<br/><br/>I really really hope this will end up getting merged in some way so that I can finally retire FediFetcher! 2024-12-27T11:57:16Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyasyel0p708hg2k7nk4zh6wyxwnwtwc5dwqalqs20t33mre7j94czypa9c8wxf5xjjr5mmdarca8484x68pkmkdqj8wg9sdfltg7txe3hw33yzz6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqst70z9wsgcfawgt8msc6jze7zpewjcy3qs4cwx2rraq9t9yqs8arsngraus'>nevent1q…raus</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Ah, yes.

As such it can be super targeted (it’ll never fetch replies you aren’t interested in), but relies on you using chrome or Firefox. <br/><br/>FediFetcher is a server side script that attempts to guess which replies you might be interested in, and fetch these proactively. As such you can use it with any client (I hardly ever use the web browser), but also means it’ll occasionally not fetch replies you’d like to see, and it’ll fetch plenty of replies you’ll never look at. <br/><br/>IMO if you use only chrome or Firefox, Substitoot is the better option. <br/><br/>If you want to use any other client you’ll need to use FediFetcher. <br/><br/>#fedifetcher 2024-08-09T12:39:15Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs27fxjvl9sf9muljzam6ante629e32u3f4dxlvcyjs3yz5r6xfekczypa9c8wxf5xjjr5mmdarca8484x68pkmkdqj8wg9sdfltg7txe3hw42cd63 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv6xt0dfqec4ttrnjrr0mquce0u88muxh5u39d8vm4v3s98m2887sn5n2rd'>nevent1q…n2rd</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;ve just pressed the release button on FediFetcher 7.1.6.<br/><br/>This version brings support for Iceshrimpt.NET, and the ability to configure FediFetcher via environment variables.<br/><br/><a href="https://github.com/nanos/FediFetcher/releases/tag/v7.1.6">https://github.com/nanos/FediFetcher/releases/tag/v7.1.6</a> <br/><br/>Massive thanks to all the contributors!
