What to scrape.
The Mastodon instance host, e.g. mastodon.world, fosstodon.org, mas.to. Instances differ in what they serve anonymously: verified 2026-10-03, mstdn.social and infosec.exchange require a login for both public and hashtag timelines (HTTP 422), and mastodon.social gates its public timeline but still serves hashtags. If the instance you pick requires an account the run finishes with a message saying so. Measured 2026-10-21: mastodon.world, fosstodon.org, mas.to, hachyderm.io and universeodon.com serve all three timelines anonymously; mastodon.social and mastodon.online serve hashtags only; infosec.exchange and chaos.social serve their local timeline only; mstdn.social serves none. In status mode the host in the URL wins over this field.
Status mode. A full Mastodon status URL (the instance and id are read from it).
Status mode. Also emit the status's reply thread (descendants).
