Attached: 2 images Someone with the Github handle Cassolotl published a chart on the anatomy of Mastodon feeds. Their work is meaningful and invaluable, but as a designer I felt we needed something more aesthetic so I created this alternative for sharing. (Original version: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/6812) Update: modified description of unlisted toots because previous version was ambiguous, as pointed out by @[email protected] and @[email protected]. #MastodonTips #TwitterMigration #MastodonFeed #MastodonTimeline

@jlobster

thanks for posting this, i didn't realize the federated feed was as limited as this, i thought it was global.

this tells me you DO want to be on a larger server, so you can see more in your feeds.

does this work the same with hashtags like #fedtips ?

@skyfishgoo "this tells me you DO want to be on a larger server, so you can see more in your feeds." Yes & no. Larger servers make the fede-feed zoom by, so kinda less useful.

It's more that you want a server that carefully curates which servers it associates with so you can follow from a range of servers. At least if you're on a server to keep up with specific different folks.
