- _han 4y agoWhich Twittery features are you missing in Mastodon?
- JoshTriplett 4y agoAutomatically pulling in more posts from the graph and automatically linking to people on their server rather than mine; trying to not feel as "isolating". If someone reposts a poll into my timeline, the poll shows as having 0 answers, or 1 answer if I answer it. If someone posts a reply that's visible in my timeline, the post they're replying to isn't reliably visible. If I'm on someone's (remote) profile on my (local) server, there isn't a giant obvious link for "go to the real profile so I can view all their posts". I have to manually construct the URL for their profile. Conversely, if I'm on someone's profile on their server, I have to copy-paste their URL into my instance's search bar before I can follow them; that should be one click, which could be done with some browser integration.

- HerbMcM 4y agoThere are other frontends that are much more Twitter like pleroma, soapbox. Soapbox seems to be adding features more than others but the dev is persona non grata in many fediverse/mastodon circles. Using plain pleroma right now, I want to try standing up misskey maybe on a weekend.
- mjmsmith 4y agoTake a look at Elk [1], it's the closest thing I've seen to a Twitter UI. [1] https://elk.zone/ https://elk.zone/
- seabea 4y agoElk is amazing. Even running it as my primary client on mobile. Really shows how good PWAs can be. One of my favorite features is the built-in code highlighting.
