"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
@NoraReed Recently I've been seeing that replies issue more and more; at first I assumed I had the person blocked but nope, sometimes I see the original post and the OP's replies to people replying to it, but not the intermediate replies. I mean I like the place, but it certainly has its issues.
