[feature] Lists

[zladuric]

Is your feature request related to a problem ?

I want to be able to assign the people I follow into lists (or alternatively, the people, tags and other "followable" things). Mastodon has lists, but gotosocial seems not to.

Describe the solution you'd like.

The simplest would probably be to just follow the Mastodon API written above, but I can imagine other ways for this feature to work.

Ideally it should let me:

• list, create, review, rename and remove lists
• add people to lists
  • [optional]: regardless of follow status, unlike mastodon (UI) seems to work
• get a list timeline (only posts from items on the list
• [optional]: add hashtags to lists
• [super stupid and crazily optional, but maybe a future idea]: add custom filter to lists, e.g. only posts written between 7 and 9 am over a cup of coffee but only if their cat feels well
• [possibly doable, probably stupid]: mention list, so it posts to all of their inboxes (e.g. people's inboxes go directly, but e.g. hashtags would just make a public hashtagged post?)

Describe alternatives you've considered.

It appears that there's a /lists endpoint on my instance (essentially a 0.5.0 built on my own), and it returns an empty array. But -X POSTing to that endpoint returns a 404.

The docs site does not mention lists (that I could find).

Additional context.

This is not an urgent request, but I noticed it is missing, so I thought I kick off the discussion and keep it on the radar (or find out that this was considered and discarded). Feel free to close this issue, convert it to a placeholder, edit it or whatever.

Heya! It's currently on the roadmap for the beginning of next year :) https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/blob/main/ROADMAP.md#q1-2023

But good to have an issue open for it too, so we can discuss implementation here :+1:
