Default to HTTPS?

Open ianrenton opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

When I first tried to set up this plugin, I specified the name of the server by itself with no protocol e.g. just "mastodon.social". When connecting, I received a 404 error. While playing around I discovered that my instance returns 404 for all API calls over HTTP, and when I specify HTTP in the plugin config, I get the same error. However, when I specify HTTPS, it works as expected.

I would imagine the vast majority of Mastodon servers use HTTPS, so if the default when not specified is HTTP, it may be a useful security improvement to default to HTTPS.

Thanks for the issue. This should be fixed in v1.0.5. Could you try it?

Hi, I'm so sorry but I missed the notification for this issue and completely forgot about it!

I have just tested it by removing and re-adding my Mastodon server, without a protocol prefix, and I can confirm it now defaults to HTTPS.
