Research direction
Start by locating the Mastodon import entry point in this JavaScript utility and compare its current RSS handling with the linked Mastodon API documentation. Use the example statuses endpoint and verify pagination with a limit of 40. Done means imports can retrieve paginated results and more entries than the current RSS approach.
