toot - Mastodon CLI & TUI

toot - Mastodon CLI & TUI is an open-source application for interacting with the Mastodon social network from a Linux command line. It provides both command-line operation and a text-based user interface for users who prefer working in a terminal. The software is intended for Mastodon users who want to manage social activity without relying on a graphical desktop application.

Users can post, reply to, and delete statuses through the application. It supports media uploads, spoiler text, and sensitive-content settings when creating posts. Search tools allow users to look for accounts or hashtags. Account controls include following, muting, and blocking, while simple switching is available between authenticated Mastodon accounts.

As a Linux application in the Communication category, toot fits systems where Mastodon access is managed from a terminal. Its open-source license allows the software to be used and examined under the terms of that license. Documentation hosted on readthedocs.io provides instructions for installation, usage, and related information.

MirrorNest distributes the official build directly from its own storage rather than presenting a separate modified product. Each mirrored build is scanned for malware before publication, giving Linux users a distribution-focused way to obtain the software.
