Streaming public posts originating from other servers

Thank you for the wonderful library!

I have a bot that boost posts with a specific hashtag. It works fine using the stream_public(), however, It usually miss some posts from other servers.

Please is there a way I can provide list of servers I would like to plug to and stream posts from them, for my bot to boost?

There seems to be an endpoint for that on the official docs, but I can't find a way to do that with the library.

Thanks

It should ideally not be missing those posts in general, though: The stream_* function make no guarantee that the stream will contain everything in case of reconnect. If you absolutely want every single post, you'd have to add special handling on reconnect to make it so. This is a tad involved for base functionality, but if you do write code for that, maybe it would be neat to have it available as a helper in some form.

About those endpoints: Seems like quite a few are missing from the library. Thanks for the report, I will add those.

Actually - some of these are available only via the websocket based API which we currently don't support. May add that eventually. For now, the one i can add is public/remote

I think remote and public will be awesome 👌
