As Twitter ditches its iconic branding in favor of owner Elon Musk's favorite letter "X," its open source competitor Mastodon is once again seeing usage numbers soar.
It’s not just lemmy that’s benefiting from Elon Musk.
What would you say is missing from the mastodon user experience vs twitter?
Things I would like:
better discovery/suggestions when people first join. I get a “selling point” is that the timeline isn’t algorithmically driven, but just to help people get their feet wet start showing them some stuff
when displaying a post there needs to be a better mechanism to fetch all the replies. Right now it’s possible to respond and say something someone else already did because you you’re not shown their reply. For federation reasons I guess.
better list integration
But overall, for me the functionality I used from twitter I have on mastodon too. The real missing feature is the huge variety of people, and getting that takes time.
