@evanEvan Prodromou @mariusormarius @smallcircles🫧 socialcoding.. Yes, I think that could be possible. I have a rough idea of a “timeline definition language” that could represent all the existing Mastodon timelines (other than “link timelines”?) and also user-defined custom timelines.

@steveSteve Bate I've just seen a FEP-34c1 today which uses the TREE hypermedia vocabulary (which I wasn't familiar with) to ask from servers a particular representation of existing collections. Have a look if it's similar to your ideas.
