geewhizThe notion that every street in a city grid must be open to cars is just absurd to me. Its such an extreme position to take that no less than 100% of roads be allowed for cars. What we really need are pedestrian only corridors where one can travel on foot and not be constantly dodging traffic. Theme parks manage this and their entire business is to extract revenue from a captured audience. If it was bad for business we wouldn’t have spaces predicated on this model. #Urbanism

Get yourself an admin who hates computers and programming and everything to do with that whole business. Get yourself an admin who knows how to spot total bastards, and who has the spine to get rid of them BEFORE they hurt people, not AFTER.

Do as @Vivaldi and team do.
Link Mastodon profiles to your organisation's team page. 😍

Independent State of Grace
I spent some time browsing #FediBlock and noticed that a lot of the reporting work is manual.
Reporters craft toots that have to be picked up and acted on by admins.
I'm wondering, could this process be streamlined?
Would it be possible/feasible to give admins anonymous and aggregated insight into which accounts and servers people have blocked and use that list to investigate further and/or block instances.
Admins may have to look at individual reports less.

Tim ChambersHi, #UX #UXDesign folks: clearly the onboarding on web and mobile to Mastodon is a clear pain point.
❓ Question/Challenge: Assuming you can't change the underlying tech of sign up across multiple instances, *how can you make onboarding better* from a #UXDesign perspective? (both web and Mobile)
Exttra points for those who do mock ups of the new #userexperience ideas.
(One idea for the mix: Create a first option "Choose a intstnace for me" - that picks the least busy general interest server)
