#mastodondevs — Public Fediverse posts

Mastodon Devs: 3 things are turning away millions of people. Do you have any plans to fix these?
1. Having to pick a server when you sign up
2. Have to copy & paste links to other servers because of awkward federation implementation
3. No quote tweets. Why is this such an issue?

Mastodon will never take off with the general public until these are fixed. That sucks because open source social media is the future we need #metacommentary #mastodon #mastodondevs

An even more easy way to detect a likely #botFarm abuser, is if they have only been on fedi since around #nov22 and attract hundreds or thousands of likes and boosts.

On fedi that is really not natural.

We do hate that we must say this but the fact is #Mastodon and #MastodonDevs really let the ball slip when they implemented a bunch of #antiFeatures that fediverse was intended never to have.

Do not #Copyleft licences, like #GPLv3, work by ensuring that **any** software that includes the FOSS code be #FOSS also?

What the above describes is #softwareTheft, right?

For example #MastodonDevs by allowing #HellaDoge to not provide source code for years, with a notification of such by us, are allowing software #theft, right?

#AGPLv3Compliance

Re #hashtags. We have a pinned toot about it, it's that important.

On fedi, use #milkshakeDuck, not simply 'milkshake duck'.

In addition to being able to import toots, there *does* need to be a way to do #booleanSearch for #hashtags.

eg. Either/or: #icecream #icecreme #gelato #gelati
Addition: #icecream #icecreme +#fediArt
Subtraction: #btc -#nft

It seems #MastodonDevs are more interested in shadowban functions and #antiFeatures like the #botFarmTimeline, tho.

Hello all, got a few bits of feedback for #mastodon any #devs #dev interested? #mastodev #mastodevs #mastodondevelopment #MastodonDevelopers #MastodonDeveloper #mastodondev #mastodondevs

Yeah, there's a reason why I:
1) never use the "official" app
2) never recommend the "official" app
3) never refer to the "official" app
4) never assent to the idea that there could ever be one app that's "official."

Because it's kinda off. It's kind of a cultural half-breed.

The #ExploreTab is indeed one of the most toxic #MastodonRegressions that #MastodonDevs have introduced. Also forced javascript. We can see the bots are pumping the #turderatti with instant "#fame".

Interestingly, ninety percent of people complaining about #techLayoffs at the #dotCons were in that joining-window also.

If we don't credit the author it's (sort of) #plagerism.

We came from Falsebook and we adjusted quickly to the culture of Fediverse not using #quoteReplies.

We quickly appreciated that although we may've been able to grow on Falsebook from it that it does also breed #oneUpmanship and #toxicity.

We doubt #MastodonDevs care what we say. They are still not enforcing #AGPLv3 against #HellaDoge, despite our calls.

Après quelques semaines d'usage de #mastodon, je me rends compte qu'il n'est pas exempt de certains défauts de twitter.
En particulier une conception qui incite au "doomscrolling". Le fait de faire défiler un fil d'actu en perdant la notion du temps.
J'ai quelques idées à ce sujet que je vous invite à discuter :

@shoq you might use hashtags with your inquiry to reach more people. Maybe #MastodonDevs or #CodingHelp. Not sure which #Mastodon hashtags might work. #MastodonHelp

We are happy to learn that TruthSocial will be respecting #AGPLv3 and will be freeLicense and openSource.

We might cry.

This is a huge leap forward for what it means to use a computer and a network.

Despite past concerns and or misunderstandings (and probably future ones) we would like to thank #MastodonDevs and @Gargron for all the work they've done to date, and all #Fedizens generally.

This is one small step for #Trump — but one giant leap for #freedomSoftware.
