It's strange to me that people are so focused on quote toots (which would be nice but I don't have particularly strong feelings about) when, in my opinion, what Mastodon desperately needs is a functional search bar. There is no better way to find out what is going on with a given topic.

Yeah, I know about hashtags, and I really don't think they are a suitable replacement.

@MerylORourke brilliant idea. of course, the usual suspects like the tabloids would complain, but the general public would respond positively

Sick of people calling everything in crypto a Ponzi scheme. Some crypto projects are Pump-and-Dump schemes, while others are Pyramid schemes. Others are just middlemen skimming off the top. Others are just standard-issue fraud.

Stop glossing over the diversity in the industry.

It has been passed on to me, that I shall pass on this wish:

>> Happy Fibonacci Day! 1 1 23

and I find this an excellent way to begin.

NYT does a major deep dive on the fake red wave polling this cycle. Very much worth a read. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/31/us/politics/polling-election-2022-red-wave.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
The ‘Red Wave’ Washout: How Skewed Polls Fed a False Election Narrative

The errant surveys spooked some candidates into spending more money than necessary, and diverted help from others who otherwise had a fighting chance of winning.

Question for the Mastodonerati: I am on two servers. Why can I find people on other servers from server A, but they don't appear in searches from server B? Huh? Why is that?
