[RFE] Rework URL structure #2305

Open g2p opened 1 year ago

g2p commented 1 year ago

I would like pinafore URLs to have a structure that is more predictable, useful for typing or for tools.

For example, the URL structure that works in Mastodon instances:

Becomes (assuming the default URL for pinafore and fosstodon as your home instance)

As far as I understand pinafore's multi-instance/multi-account support, only one is active at a time, so they don't need to be reflected in the URL. (If multiple can be active, non-default instances could use a prefix)

This would become immediately useful with this small extension for interacting with remote profiles: https://github.com/bramus/mastodon-profile-redirect/
