Show server info somewhere

Open nikclayton opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Servers provide information about posting limits and other info at /api/v2/instance.

Some of that information could be useful to bundle up and display on a screen to the user somewhere. Maybe on the "About" screen (might be a bit non-discoverable), maybe as another tab on their profile screen (makes some sense, since the profile is tied to a specific server).

Maybe as account preferences? They're not user-settable preferences, but maybe that's the most discoverable place?

Useful information to highlight could be:

  • max_featured_tags
  • max_characters
  • max_media_attachments
  • supported_mime_types
  • image_size_limit
  • image_matrix_limit (rendered as useful maximum width/height)
  • video_size_limit
  • video_matrix_limit (ditto)
  • polls > max_options
  • polls > max_characters_per_option
  • polls > max_expiration
  • translation > enabled
  • contact info
  • server rules
