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. 😊

@nolan Looks awesome! Would it be practical to embed the server in a mobile app and make it entirely stand-alone?

@jaycie @nolan related question... since the glitchsoc fork has multiple frontend support, could we make this an optional frontend on glitchsoc instances potentially?

@bea @jaycie It's possible, but would require a bit of work first to change how auth is handled. What's supported today is self-hosting, but you'd still have to have the user log in to the instance manually.
