1/ Many potential users complain about Mastodon's sign-up process.
So I'm going to put this under the microscope right now.
To be sure, I'm not going to say it is "bad" or that there shouldn't be a barrier to entry.
Just pointing out ways the sign-up process can be easier. 🧵
Ever since I've focused on Mastodon over Twitter, the one major thing I've said over and over again that was missing (but I was sure was coming) was a Mastodon version of Nuzzel or Tweetshelf. A tool to find what news links your followers are sharing.
And... @decius has just built one! Just released today, so may be buggy, but already looks amazing and INCREDIBLY useful.
