New blog post: "Introducing Pinafore for Mastodon" https://nolanlawson.com/2018/04/09/introducing-pinafore-for-mastodon/
Pinafore is an alternative web client for Mastodon that I'm releasing today. The goal is to make a lightweight standalone web app that can plug into multiple instances, with a UI focused on speed and simplicity.
Pinafore is still beta-quality in places, but it's already the main client @ElfLord and I have been using for the past few weeks. I've been working on it since the start of this year. Hope y'all like it. 😊
As noticed by @lychee, it seems Privacy Badger doesn't play nice with Pinafore. It thinks your instance is a "third-party tracker" because of the cross-origin requests. 🙃 https://github.com/nolanlawson/pinafore/issues/23
The only fix is to disable Privacy Badger for Pinafore apparently. Sorry about that; if anyone knows of any workaround please do let me know.
@nolan @lychee PB determines "trackers" heuristically and by client-side observation, which is why you're getting a lot of "works for me!" replies. (They haven't seen that request from different domains.) A non-trivial workaround is to post a compliant Do Not Track policy (but that might be per instance, so... non-trivial) https://www.eff.org/dnt-policy
@xor @lychee Thanks, will do!
