@wakest Most important features of Mastodon support are implemented in AndStatus, but I need some more checks and additions before Beta release. Especially regarding image attachment...
Current state is reflected at the bottom of this ticket:

Interessant: sembla que en @gargron, desenvolupador de #Mastodon, no li acaba de fer el pes adaptar l'API, de manera que els clients que puguin fer-se ho tenen més difícil per seguir bé la Fediverse. Aquí una discussió amb el que programa el @andstatus https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/419

@bes You opened my eyes, thank you. I thought that creation of a new custom client API for Mastodon with strictly centralized communication was a developer's desire to do at least something "new"... What a naive I was when I tried to argue at https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/419 that federation-oriented API would be better for GNU Social community and wandered why I wasn't heard...
Now this looks like a deliberate decision for Mastodon to wall-garden users in separate instances. Quite appropriate for a corporate customer, but bad for federated social networking?!

@archaeme I would be happy if API of Mastodon was better than "Twitter compatible" that GS clients use. Unfortunately, it is just different and as bad as the former.
As I wrote, "What I cannot understand is creation in 2016 a system and its API, using approaches of the past, for which we already have far better implementation concepts. Usage of URIs/GUIDs is one of them." More details - in this discussion: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/419

@vloev I remember our conversation on a proper name for a "GNU Social instance", Twitter and Pump.io from a client application's (AndStatus) point of view.
And you know, each GNU Social instance _today_ is a Social network AND the whole Pump.io is ONE Social network (although it also has federated architecture).
Because each Social network has its own Users and messages. Yes, Twitter-like client API of GNU Social leads to inability to see a federation as one Social network.
More on this in this API discussion: https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/419
