API: Mastodon support for public (unauthenticated) timelines

Open snarfed opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Mastodon supports unauthenticated API calls for some public data, eg timelines (both firehose and per account), accounts, and statuses. We should support those without auth! That way we could offer granary.io URLs for eg converting them to RSS/Atom without exposing access tokens.
