"everyone who can't figure out how to use mastodon is stupid" your website does not have a functioning system for following people on other servers
like i am sorry but i saw a survey going around on here where like 80% of the respondents used linux. no one on this website has any idea how normal users of technology work
"why do journalists keep telling people our website is hard to use" because there's a million weird little idiosyncratic things like "replies aren't all visible" and "you have to copy paste stuff to follow people on another instance" and the site culture is to gaslight anyone who points this out
this is not a safe space for whining about journalists who accurately assessed that your website has a long way to go if it's going to appeal to very many people who aren't linux freaks

@NoraReed (Agree, 💯)

Linux is the penguin one? And there are the snake ppl and the fruit ones. Oh and the Swifties :P

@NoraReed Aaaand now I can see the whole thread…
@boby_biq an illustration of the problem!
