Mastodawn

Rad things about mastodon we take for granted

CW -these are amazing

Editing posts -hard to go back once you taste this

Alt text as the norm - (edit: you can be brief! edit it in later!)

Replies -option to delist them so we don’t clog the feed

Timeline curating -we have near infinite timeline options with filters, lists, local, federated, hashtags

Muting -we can choose a time period!

Character count -500 let’s you get an effing thought out

Ownership -we can own the damn thing ourselves

@seachanger And the sad thing is, 90% of this is "too much work" for most "normal" social media users and thus it won't become the standard

Yet. Efforts are being made. Maybe too slowly for the people now running away from the Cuckoos' Nest, but things are improving.

Good part about it taking a bit of time - they aren't just throwing everything in the soup and seeing what floats and doesn't.
