Fabian【ファビアン】🏳️🌈@Mastodon Thats great! We love you & Mastodon for this.
BUT this alone is not going to work. Only catching those who can't be or don't want to be somewhere else is not what makes you stick around or relevant. We need things to actually become a sexy social network.

Felix Hlatky@fabiscafe That's indeed a very good point and a common problem: Big Tech social media has provided us state-of-the-art UI/UX for c. 2 decades "for free" (I think 50% of users still don't know or even care that their data is sold). This has created a user expectation whenever they open new apps (like @Mastodon) which is almost impossible to meet.
It unfortunately boils down to a resource problem: we need more funding, from the user base, from public institutions, from wealthy people, etc.
Jill ☁️@mellifluousbox There are more people who care, they just don't know the alternatives and the ones giving a f... unfortunately are often just louder.
@fabiscafe Disagree. The Fediverse is already sexy as f... We just have to tell the ones who aren't here yet, why and how.
@jill parts of the fedi are, yes. Mastodon however is not.
@fabiscafe How so? What is (missing) it that doesn`t make it sexy for you?
@jill it's not about me. I'm here. The thing is, young people don't come because mastodon is boring.
@fabiscafe This is not my impression. Could you be a little bit more specific or give an example for what is missing?
@jill You may want to ask @Juls about that. She made up some nice ideas a few month ago. (not all are written down there):

WorldTravelerAll7i don't go in for this kindness begets kindness nonsense. we are currently in a war against fascists. fuck the fascists.
richintheflow@Mastodon Is Mastodon free of bots? And is there any moderation regarding potential bots that can annoy the Mastodon experience?
@richintheflow that's the decision of every instance on their own.
@richintheflow well, you can mute or block any account yourself. Moderators deal with accounts that break the rules of the server that you're using.
Some automated accounts can be useful ones, so they can be set up with an automated badge (for example, to post interesting or fun things) and you can choose to follow them, or block or ignore them.
We hope you don't get too annoyed when you're using Mastodon!
@Mastodon Thank you for your answer. I've never felt annoyed in Mastodon though my presence here. Mastodon is really a peaceful place to exchange, it's a gift to have this kind of instance. Thank you for your hard work!
Doomslayer269@Mastodon you are doing a good job making this app better and safe
