Super excited to announce, we just merged a Plugin system for 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: github.com/magicstone-dev/ecko

Curious. How will Ecko developers / community ensure plugin code quality? Will Ecko team, or each individual plugin author be responsible for plugin system #security ?

@lightone @weex I think it would be mostly maintaining like gems, We can increase the community by packaging and maintaining in every aspect like scalability, security and well documented for people to use. When usage increases, community proportionally increases too. Now, only thing that needs is confirming and validating its use.

@Mansh05 @lightone Yes, I really like the way peertube does their plugins through npm with a tag and their website I think does an api call and puts a disclaimer. I'd much rather teach people how to vet their dependencies than to bless anything.
