"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 you ... dont have to copy paste stuff to follow people on another instance though what are you talking abou
@vegetablegremlin you do on the web interface
@NoraReed no you dont. i just followd and unfollowed you on the web interface right now by clicking the big button.
