Super excited to announce, we just merged a Plugin system for #Ecko which is a first for any fork of Mastodon!
The first plugin is a Stripe integration which was proposed in previous discussions for plugins for Mastodon. If you'd like to take a look at the PR, here it is: https://github.com/magicstone-dev/ecko/pull/290
Please share any issues at https://github.com/magicstone-dev/ecko/issues
@lightone Great question! The current form of a plugin is a Ruby gem and quality/security would be up to the community to police similar to other gems. If that becomes an issue specific to Ecko / Magic Stone projects that would be an interesting problem to dig into.
