Mastadon shortcomings, no chat or private messaging. Folks I'd like to talk more with but no way to do that without exposing contact info to everyone. But I'd not trade it for other Facebook or something like that. #mastadonwishlist #mastadonshortcoming #chatcontrol
I know we can follow users from across servers. But with some dedicated, and hopefully trusted and verified, instances popping up (journa.host and texasobserver.social for example), it would be sweet if we can “follow instances” - maybe in a separate section, as an easy access to view posts on those instances at once. Is there a way to do that now? #MastadonWishList
On my #MastadonWishList : the ability to see my followers’ followers who aren’t on my server.

What are people's #MastadonWishlist ideas? What do you think is missing or needs improving?

- user data resilience (automated backups or distributed storage, so your server dying won't take you with it)
- better user discovery. Having to search 3rd-party directories is a pain
- one-click following regardless of a person's server
- I kind of miss quote tweeting, but it's not a deal breaker.
- Automated splitting of >500 character posts into threads
