Everyone still on the hellsite: Twitter is burning but Mastodon is not usable, bluesky is meh, and I don't know anyone on T2.
Me: I can toot from an emacs buffer to Mastodon, how much more usable do you need it to be?
Everyone still on Twitter: ... What is emacs?
@SusanPotter Hi, same-side here 💙, but I need to point out that the answer is in the question. If people can’t understand how to use a piece of software, the problem isn’t the person—it’s the software.
It’s not about technical capabilities. It’s about being intuitive and humane.
As a UX designer, I have to say that mastodon still suffers from some preventable usability issues that prevent everyday folks from feeling comfortable here. Let’s be inclusive in all ways.
