CW: List of things to be improved on Masto
Hey all, still as part of the #MoveToMasto Movement, and because we’re a bunch of honest people, let’s list all the things we think could be improved here on #Mastodon:
(I’ll start - in no specific order. I've also added workarounds when I knew about them)
(See this other post for the positive aspects)[1] No feedback on your boosts: do people like them? boost them? 🤷
[2] You can’t easily see all the answers to someone else’s post
[unless you go to their instance's website]
[3] Some great-looking accounts haven’t actually been active for a long time
[but you can see "last active date" on your "follows and followers" Settings]
[4] you can't easily quote posts
[except with some apps, also this is coming soon in Masto!]
[5] You can easily miss very relevant content
[a customizable algo might be coming at some point on our instance!]
[6] (very specific to me) there are not enough #BehaviouralNeuroscience or #NeuroEthology people
[if you know any, tell them to come here!]
[7] the new search is great but doesn’t search ALL of Mastodon’s public posts
[you can always do a search from outside, say with DuckDuckGo]
[8] you can't easily see only the posts of a profile
[but you can use https://justmytoots.com/ for this]
[9] …?Please do add your own!
Edit: I updated the list, thanks to contributions of @diazona, @thefalcon 🙏
