1. mk mmn , andstatus

   @andstatus so you're suggesting the the 'remote follow' process as implemented in the web interface is not actually supported by the API but (instead) inplemented "directly" in the web GUI? If so, yuk! Then that should definitely be amended. /cc @mmn

     @mk @andstatus Was subscribing implemented in !Twitter's #API? If not, that would explain its absence in !GNUSocial. I agree, though, that everything that is possible in the web client should be possible with API clients. (And eventually,…

     @lnxw48 but, *local* subscribing certainly is part of the Twitter(-like) API, and even possible in the XMPP interface with a simple command. The problem is in remote subscription because it isn't a simple command to be matched to a si…
