Interesting urwid implementations:

TODO/Ideas:

  • pack left column in timeline view
  • allow scrolling of toot contents if they don't fit the screen, perhaps using pageup/pagedown
  • consider adding semi-automated error reporting when viewing an exception, something along the lines of "press T to submit a ticket", which would link to a pre-filled issue submit page.
  • show new toots, some ideas:
    • R to reload/refresh timeline
    • streaming new toots? not sold on the idea
    • go up on first toot to fetch any newer ones, and prepend them?
  • Switch timeline to top/bottom layout for narrow views.
  • Think about how to show media
    • download media and use local image viewer?
    • convert to ascii art?
  • use signals to avoid tightly coupling components

Questions:

  • is it possible to make a span a urwid.Text selectable? e.g. for urls and hashtags
