it is indeed very annoying that looking at a fediverse profile doesn't work without js

cws don't expand (we have detail+summary!) and i think there's some fork or alt software that only shows a blank page

yeah like botsin.space is an empty void and at a glance it seems to be stock mastodon. come on
ok so mastodon 4 just made everything js-only and shows //nothing at all// otherwise. what a humiliating step backwards

@eevee you can try plerona, but plerona instances politically are... special compared to mastodon. Even tho they are all conected and yatayatayata you know.

is self hosting for a group of friends a good enough option?

@gabboman the problem isn't my instance, which i already implicitly trust; the problem is landing on 50 other instances i've never heard of and not being able to read /10 lines of text/ without enabling code execution
