Semaphore

Hello world!

Introducing Semaphore an accessible, simple and fast web client for Mastodon.

Semaphore continues the work of @nolan 's @pinafore, and will prioritise accessibility, continuing Pinafore's track record of integrating improvements from disabled contributors.

Follow this account if you'd like to keep up-to-date with releases and news.

@semaphore @nolan @pinafore I don't know that People are really interested in yet another #mastobrand web client -they're mostly looking for #Fediverse web clients - Pinafore is a Fediverse web client, perhaps you can retool your client to support other Fediverse server types like #Pinafore does?

Maybe something like:

https://fe.SoapBox.Pub

That supports a wide range of Fediverse server platforms, and of course, mastobrand is included in that list.

I hope that helps!

@tallship Semaphore is based on Pinafore so that should work!

I tried it on Firefox at Windows, and says: error "invalid_client"

@semaphore @nolan @pinafore Please say it doesn't have that stupid "paste link to post into the search field so you can boost or reply" anti-workflow introduced in v4.x..

petit poke pour @juliemoynat et le masto #accessibilité : voilà un projet qui semble s'attacher à réaliser un client masto accessible en mettant la prio sur les tickets à ce sujet. Espérons que ça tienne 🤞

@nolan @pinafore @semaphore I think more people everyday have less and less use for a limited mastodon client and more of a need for #Fediverse clients instead.

Just this year, mastodon has lost 23% market share and that number is growing. Marketing alone cannot save a failed platform.

Everyday, mastodon continues to become less relevant as "yet another mastopub client" is increasingly superfluous.

This is why, over the past two years, that general purpose Fediverse clients have enjoyed huge levels of adoption while simple , feature lacking mastodon clients have experienced mass abandonment with the rise in popularity of Fediverse clients and their subsequent adoption by the masses.

@semaphore @nolan @pinafore Thanks for not letting that awesome project die :blobpats:

@semaphore @nolan @pinafore Great app. Just works. thanks for doing what you do.

It seems not much happened with @semaphore after the fork and v1.0.0.
