@jef I've noticed the same sort of problem with profile changes, like display name or profile pic. It seems to come with the territory for a young, federated system like this.

@aelkus it seems the governance problem is solved, in part, by the federated structure of the platform. If you don't like the community, you can always join a better-managed instance with values that more closely align with your own.

Mastodon's model seems superior to birdsite's at the outset, but I'm curious to see where we end up.

I wonder if Mastodon music video lookups are trending on youtube
I'm not sure what the solution is here. Mastodon has this really neat small community vibe to it right now that reminds me of my first steps on to the internet as a wee lad, joining random PHPBB forums and such, in an age before things really centralized to the degree they have now.
