#MastodonSuggestions

I think the filtering system could be improved. When you create a filter you can add words or phrases:

Unwantedword1
Unwantedword2
Unwanted phrase

The filter acts as an OR selection. What would be nice if you could add AND or UNLESS statements

Fish AND chips

or

Trump UNLESS card

There appears to be a bug in the user icons displayed in the web version of mastodon v4.3.1 on the notifications page. The same user icon can show up multiple times.

This has happened on many of my posts for the past few days.

I may well do a bug report, but in case I forget I'm making this post.

If you are connected to firewalled wifi and attempt to post in the Mastodon app you *do not* get an error. Your post is eaten. Deleted forever.

I wrote this amazing post and it’s gone. This has happened before. Other apps say “cannot post” when firewalled. Seems like bug.

(please don’t tell me to use a different app I have four apps each with their own issues- the purpose of this post is to check if it’s fair to call it a bug)

I see that Trump got nixed from the Colorado ballot.

At least 100 separate posts in “trending”.

While I too am glad to hear good news, this is what I’m talking about when I say we need an interface that merges these into one. All the articles, all the comments. Together.

Birdsite's community notes, but the OP has to approve it.
Mainly for #alttext purposes where OP doesn't do alttext themself #Accessibility #MastodonSuggestions

...though I would of course prefer it if people always provided their own alttext when they post an image, unless the image is adequately described in the post itself.

Are any of these the real Matt Binder, journalist?

None of them have a green link. Have we made any progress on verification around here?

Hmm... now we just need to be able to limit what type of posts can show up in columns on advanced view.

Like posts only with no boosts
or media only for art feeds

Just copy tweetdeck wholesale and i'll be happy tbh 🤣

I try to be a good person but it's easy to forget that not putting caps in multi-word hash tags makes them terrible for screen readers.

It's important like putting the captions on your images.

*however*

It would be helpful if the web app of mastodon could please stop suggesting I make bad choices? #mastodon #mastodonSuggestions

(by the way what do screen readers do with *things in stars* ? seems like it should speak them more slowly as if in bold...)
