       Rad things about mastodon we take for granted CW - these are amazingEditing posts - hard to go back once you taste this Alt text as the norm - total community enforcement Replies - option to delist them so we don’t clog the feedTimeline curating - we have near infinite timeline options with filters, lists, local, federated, hashtags etcMuting - we can choose a time period!Character count - 500 let’s you get an effing thought out Ownership - we can own the damn thing ourselves

       I’m not a tech person and never really thought about ANY of this prior to Elon musk buying twitter a year ago, but popping onto baby bluesky has highlighted for me just how dynamic and mature mastodon actually is. It gets a LOT of criticism and omission from mainstream journos, but the reality is that mastodon is a fascinating and very user friendly global group project, and deserves some credit for what it has, not just (appropriate and important) criticism of what it lacks

       All that said, I’d love to see masto continue to evolve in ways that make joining (and starting instances) much easier for regular people, BIPOC and people who don’t enjoy thinking about tech features! Would also love to see quicker adoption of features people are calling for, like opt-in quote toots. Also, more humility & dialogue pls on how to make the fedi mirror the demographics of our planet: more ownership and participation from the global south, more BIPOC leadership and participation

       @seachanger EXACTLY. These are the things I've been trying to tell the Twitter folks. When you get used to the goodness, there is no going back.

       @seachanger +1 re mastodon’s maturity. I for one only now understand how much it takes to get to a maturity point, by watching the newcomer’s build out in the open.This stuff is complicated!

       @rolle I think many will end up being incorporated in blooski as a result. Kind of like the ideologue who runs for office and who may not win but whose platform gets adopted thereafter by any one who wants to capture the zeitgeist

       @seachanger Maybe. But I'm pretty sure Bluesky will never have all the same benefits than Mastodon and this is why I'll be here. I'm sure their business model will not allow it to ever be installed on people's own servers.

       @notjustbikes @EposVox @seachanger 1) I have read you can edit to add alt-text later (not sure if that is server, or app dependent).2) I personally want you to spread your message widely, so recommend muting over blocking.3) Please keep promoting your message and sharing links!

       @rolle @jkbecker :smile: Makes me think of the 620 character poem "Natur und Kunst" from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, which says: "in der Beschränkung zeigt sich erst der Meister".
