Description

i understand that Mastodon-API based timeline sync (markers) has its limits. How about optional timeline sync (full automatic) via iCloud? Could that solve the problem of too many accesses per hour/day? I really would appreciate automatic sync between iOS App and macOS App.

Research direction

The request concerns automatic timeline synchronization between the iOS App and macOS App, contrasting Mastodon API markers with iCloud. No files, tests, or entry points are identified, so first determine where timeline state and existing marker synchronization are handled. Done would require an agreed iCloud-based design and working cross-device synchronization.
