Rad things about mastodon we take for granted
CW - these are amazing
Editing 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 feed
Timeline curating - we have near infinite timeline options with filters, lists, local, federated, hashtags etc
Muting - 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

Is there a petition somewhere to remove "Google Safe Browsing" from Firefox? I would like to sign it, if so.

What I would like to have is a way to detect if a browser has this enabled, and if so gently redirect them to an exit page about #webneutrality or something.

SW is neutral. Users and instance operators are not. Pick the SW that meets your desire. Snac2 seems to be on the other end of the feature spectrum from Misskey or Calckey of minimalist verses full featured. Tell me how you like Snac2 if you try it.
Wow, someone wants peace:)
Bravo....the world needs more if this!

I dont really engage there anymore and try to steer ppl onto this platform
Just finished reading/listening to "War is a Racket" by Smedley Butler.

I was surprised how applicable to today it sounded despite being written pre-WWII. Same playbook I suppose.
Good listen and pretty short, too.
I think I saw it discussed somewhere on NA Social recently so thanks to whomever posted about it. 👍

in reply to malena • • •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
