I know that the Textual author recommends asyncio for background jobs, but I'm not (yet) familiar enough with asyncio yet.
Will such a separate thread allow the blocking requests.get()/post() calls [that Mastodon.py makes] to happen without stalling the UI?
(Adding this to the list of things to test/prototype.)
