Here's a thing that makes Mastodon instances work less well than they could...
when you visit an instance, all the front pages look the same.
"About this instance" is a TINY little link under the sign-up form. This is crazy.
Instances should LEAD with a community description, not bury it.
That's like a newsgroup leading with the OS it used to run the newsgroup rather than saying: "This is a Kenny G community"

READ THIS 55-segment "toot-storm" from @dredmorbius - he's got some thoughts in there about Mastodon, social messaging, centralization and much, much more... https://mastodon.cloud/@dredmorbius/1058991

It's really nice to see that the dev has reacted correctly https://social.wxcafe.net/media/U-PysbZ1gQ_h_7WyrsU

Soo, hello mastoworld. Coming from the #birdsite, I'm a linguist and a dev with a neverending love for everything languages. Coming in the second time after having accidentally killed my first instance. #introduction

I don't know how to use Mastodon. I wonder if Mastodon will replace Twitter. :thinking:
