@dlr have you found any other apps/sites that you like on the fediverse more than Mastodon?

I can suggest a feature that may benefit you or the projects you associate with even if you are not actively using ie. Mastodon.

The feature is called "Author Tags" (introduced in Mastodon v. 4.3)

I got 2 attachments showing difference with and without...

Example html:

> <meta name="fediverse:creator" content="@[email protected]" />

Upgrade to #Mastodon via #Mastodon43 (ref blog link) may suit some users. I find it clunky and new condensed display of notifications of boosts annoys me. I can't tell at a glance what's been boosted and have to click on each to get post to expand.

I am I the only one feeling this?

I'm also not certain I want Mastodon to add Quote Posts. They seem to enable misue altho that could be true of any social media interactions.

Oh look! I found another reason to dislike the Mastodon 4.3 interface.

@frozencanuck I wasn't seeing it, at least on my own posts. It was driving me a bit batty - the documentation made no mention of any special syntax for this.
I found out that it just takes a bit of extra spacing. I've generally just put extra hashtags at the end of the last line of the post. Seems you need to put an empty line before the hashtags, then you will see that nifty button formatting.

Well, Mastodon 4.3 landed on my instance and suddenly I am Old Man Yells at Stupid New CSS. It's not as if Mastodon's web interface has ever been well, comprehensible, but they've really doubled down on poor legibility and inelegance, and solved zero problems that I can detect.

And, of course, none of the most problematic new things are tweakable.
