I know I'm just an idiot, but I can't figure out how to get it working. Please, send instructions. I have been trying to get it to work for 1+ hrs. I use Win11, I have Go installed.

The readme contains examples how to use this code. :) They work. So in order to get help, it would be great if you shared what doesn't work.

Follow this guide for example, for registering a new application on your account and get an Access Token to login with.

Then you just have to provide the token when setting up a new client:

c := mastodon.NewClient(&mastodon.Config{
    Server:      "http://localhost:8000", // or whatever server you're trying to connect to
    AccessToken: "longtokenhere",
})

Works flawlessly for me.

Docs doesnt mention accesstoken.

This does not work either if you have 2FA enabled, btw.
