I signed up and tried it out. The "Public" thing on the right side apparently can't be shut off. About every third toot has four-letter words. Racism, sexually inappropriate comments, politics, you get to see it all. I don't see that working.
- daveid 10y agoYou can press back in your browser to leave the public timeline, as well as opening anything else (account, hashtag, status) will replace it. I make an effort to moderate the worst, i.e. hate speech, spam and vandalism should not stay on the public timeline for long (who disagrees with my policies is welcome to start their own instance). If I've missed something please let me know @Gargron@mastodon.social or per e-mail eugen@zeonfederated.com. A "report" feature is in the works in the next few days.
- daveid 10y agoI added a "back" button to the headers of the public and hashtag timelines that takes you back to the getting started page, just for you.
- bachmeier 10y agoOkay. Thanks. You might want to think about this going forward, given all the things Twitter has to deal with.
