@halcy Well, I follow the #mastodonpy tag and would use it for any questions here too.
However, it is slightly annoying, that the same tag is also used by lots of test messages.
(And yes: Anything that isn't just my incompetence is going to github issues anyways.)
I've been wondering for a while: People seem to often ask questions about "how do I do X with mastodon.py" or "why isn't my code, that uses mastodon.py, working" into the void, or in some general forum. I don't usually see those questions, so even if I could easily help, I have no means to. It'd be great if people tagged me into these types of questions, or if there was a better venue for it, maybe. I've been thinking like sure just open a github issue, even if it's just a "how do I do X" type question, but I think most people are hesitant to?
What would be the ideal way to improve this situation somewhat? Any suggestions welcome, but of course especially if you've been in that situation. #mastodonpy #mastodev
As expected, here's a quick Mastodon.py release that fixes some issues people found, mostly pagination related. Upgrading from 2.0.0 to this should be perfectly safe, it's bugfixes only~ Thank you to everyone who reported an issue or even contributed a PR to immediately fix it <3

I've worked out the issues and now uploaded version 2.0 of the Mastodon.py Debian packages. As @halcy said in the main announcement, there are a lot of changes.
The other good thing is some optional dependencies are now available in Debian so they're included now too.
Today, I learned that PyScript is a thing, and that you can use it to run Mastodon.py entirely in your browser and build anything from a small basic tool to an entire client, using Python, that runs in the browser!

Hey, everyone! It took like 1.5 years, here is, finally, a proper new release for Mastodon.py! This was a lot of work! I'm so glad I finally got it across the line!
Docs: https://mastodonpy.readthedocs.io/en/2.0.0/
Github with changelog: https://github.com/halcy/Mastodon.py/releases/tag/2.0.0
This is a *massive* update. There's all the support for new endpoints up to 4.3.0, and large amounts of refactoring. The library is now fully typed, too, and thanks to that documentation has been massively improved!
Despite the major version bump, everything *should* be for the most part backward compatible. Existing code should not break, unless you're on Python 3.6 or below. I would still recommend being careful about upgrading without need. Expect a maintenance update once people actually start using this and find all the issues in the code that my tests didn't catch.
