A reminder that Twitter was not made as you see it today. At the start it was literally an SMS frontend. It didn't have concepts like threads, DMs, groups, privacy (ha!), blocking, muting or any of that crap. ALL THAT GREW ORGANICALLY - at first just as conventions, later adopted.

We will figure out how to use Mastodon. And some of those ways will be adopted officially (whatever that means!). This is our place. We'll shape it. Give it time.

@TomF that is an incredibly colonial attitude. You realize that Mastodon has been around since 2016? That there is already a culture here? Please, before you start wrecking the place, take the time to learn why Mastodon is so much better than Twitter.
@RandomCanuck Aren't you a charming fellow then.
@TomF I am actually. I’m not tolerant of colonizers though.
