Hey all, just a heads up that we’re planning on merging a breaking API change soon.
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/5019
Going forward all IDs are going to be JSON strings instead of JSON numbers. This is because we’re paving the way for snowflake ids, and JS, or libraries with numbers as 64-bit floating points, can’t handle anything larger then 53-bits.
We don't have any plans at the moment for releasing this code, so for the foreseeable future this is only a concern for master instances.
