My biggest gripe is that it is just like twitter: there's no HTML page with text or images. There's only a javascript application to run. For twitter I could use a nitter mirror. For mastadon... I just close that tab because there's no way to avoid executing the javascript that I'm aware of. Does anyone know of a way? edit I found a way. You can use the JS api, like: https://mastodon.social/@bagder/109432034039353503 becomes, https://mastodon.social/api/v1/statuses/109432034039353503 which returns the post in json form. Readable without execution.

What would I give for an API that returns HTML-formatted JSON for browsers... Rancher for example does that.
