Every day is like "starting tomorrow only people who post ‘Elon is cool' will be eligible to have their tweets appear in English" and the entire press corps and all of my friends continue to post there like nothing has changed
@caseynewton Most #journalists will not come to #Mastodon because #Mastodon lacks a robust #search function.

@scottspeaking @caseynewton

depending on what you're looking for, google already works. the #fediverse is not a separate platform, it shouldn't need a separate search engine. posts are already part of the public internet. isn't that the point?

@wjmaggos @caseynewton #Mastodon does have a #search engine: hashtags. If #Google search is the answer, why do we need #hashtags?
