// StreamGETHandler swagger:operation GET /api/v1/streaming streamGet
//
// Initiate a websocket connection for live streaming of statuses and notifications.
//
// The scheme used should *always* be `wss`. The streaming basepath can be viewed at `/api/v1/instance`.
//
// On a successful connection, a code `101` will be returned, which indicates that the connection is being upgraded to a secure websocket connection.
//
// As long as the connection is open, various message types will be streamed into it.
//
// GoToSocial will ping the connection every 30 seconds to check whether the client is still receiving.
//
// If the ping fails, or something else goes wrong during transmission, then the connection will be dropped, and the client will be expected to start it again.
