Jon HenshawHey #SEO peeps, and anyone else who might read this, the best way to keep up with people is to create lists and add people. Especially if you follow a lot of people. Otherwise, you'll miss out on conversations you may want to be a part of.
Dave Warnock@jon maybe I've not got my head around things properly. I was thinking of putting people in lists as as an alternative to following so I'd sit down to catch up without seeing things twice. But it seems people have to be followed and not muted to show in lists.
@Dave42W correct. You have to follow someone to add them to a list. I'm sure that was an intentional design decision, the same way it's intentional that you can't quote boost, someone. I don't make the rules here 😀
@jon sorry I should be clearer.
As a new user it wasn't quite what I expected but I am impressed with the design thought and decisions around Mastodon which, when I take time to understand, are careful and wise.
For example if I didn't have to follow someone to put them on a list it would be a nasty way of avoiding people choosing to review follow requests.
