Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.vextorium.com/v1/mastodon-trending-links?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need real-time trending content from the Mastodon/fediverse ecosystem specifically, rather than Twitter/X or mainstream social platforms. It is ideal for monitoring fediverse discourse, building news digests from decentralized social media, or tracking what links a specific Mastodon community is amplifying. Prefer this over general web scraping when you want curated, community-validated trending links with share counts from a specific Mastodon server.
Side effects
- Invalid or unreachable Mastodon instance returns an error or empty results
- Instance with no trending data configured returns empty links array
- Limit parameter out of range may return default or capped results
- Rate limiting on the upstream Mastodon public API causes failure or stale data
- Non-existent instance hostname causes a connection error
