features added:
-multihome, multilocal, multifed: these merge each user's home, local, and fed timelines respectively into three big timelines
--faving, boosting, replying to toots all do so on the account whose timeline the toot came from
---ex. if there's a user @user_a@website.com, and in its home timeline it sees a toot, on multihome, if you liked that toot, the account that would like it would be @user_a@website.com
--found at /multihome, etc
-the ability to 'subscribe' to instances
--subsfed and subslocal merge each instance's fed and local timelines into two big timelines
--these are found at /subsfed and /subslocal
--faving/boosting/etc toots on these isn't (currently) possible due to technical reasons, maybe later, but unlikely. if you want to interact with these posts, make an account on the instance
feel free to request more features like these, email me @ riverdreams@pm.me
installation info can be found at install.md im pretty sure you only need python to install
the rest of this is the original readme file
Brutaldon is a brutalist, Web 1.0 web interface for Mastodon and Pleroma. It is not a Mastodon-compatible social networking server; rather, it is just a client, like the Android or iOS client for Mastodon you may already be using, but it runs in a web server, and is accessed through a web browser. It works great in text-mode browsers such as Lynx, w3m, or elinks, and also in more heavy-weight graphical browsers, such as Firefox. It works completely without JavaScript, but if JavaScript is available and enabled, it will be used to unobtrusively enhance the user experience.
There is a hosted instance at brutaldon.online which you can use to log in to any instance. However, you are also encouraged to run your own, either locally or on a public server.
Brutaldon is ready for day to day use, and is my main way of interacting with the fediverse. It is still missing some features you might want, like lists, filters, and editing your own profile. Please see the issues tracker.
People love screenshots, whatever the project, so here we are. These screenshots are relatively old.

You can buy me a coffee to give me energy to work on this, but only if you have it to spare.
