@Mastodon I hope international boundaries will be taken into consideration. Many mobile apps (such as dating apps) use geographical proximity, and it’s not helpful where I live, as preference is given to a rather hostile neighbouring country over the nearest cities in my own country.

We are excited to share that we are beginning work on a new onboarding experiment for #Mastodon: Default Server Recommendations.
-
@WestLawns@mastodon.social @Mastodon@mastodon.social its so Poles can get recommended Polish instances, Germans German instances etc etc

@sunnythesheep @Mastodon trending isn’t bad, but that’s not “my feed” / “my timeline” and it’s been a major complaint about mastodon when I chat with folks who gave up. An empty feed.
Hashtags essentially work the same as the Bluesky feeds to follow. They are just “topics”. Hit folks with a list of The Big Ones they can follow and get that feed going!

@mainz_sozial_digital
Mainz meine Perle!

@Mastodon Open sign-ups? Won't we just get spam from more servers? (Most of our reports are of mastodon.social accounts for this reason).
-
Would you please like to focus your attention on the issue of encryption, please. Currently you are building a network with servers that do not encrypt user data and do not offer e2ee for private messages. This will explode into a gigantic privacy catastrophe when Mastodon will get it´s endless November, so these heavy design issues must be solved before that.
-
@Mastodon Geographically by server location or by area served? Cause in some cases that's pretty wildly different.

@sebzuen Dankeschön für die lieben Worte ☺️
Wir werden uns bemühen sie von mastodon.social auf eine andere Instanz zu bekommen!
Wir können uns da alternativ zu unserer eigenen Instanz aber auch ganz gut eine Instanz des Landes RLP oder auch der Stadt selbst vorstellen.

@Mastodon good, finely starting to address this wider issue https://hamishcampbell.com/the-problem-of-too-big-mastodon/

@Matt_Noyes
Yeah, if by open sign-ups they mean you can sign up without admin approval, then this requirement is either hilariously stupid or purposely crafted so that they can exclude most, if not all, other servers except mastodon.social and then just return to the current status quo.I'd so much like to apply Hanlon's on this, but given how long it took them to start working on this...
@Mastodon -
@Mastodon I’m not a server owner or administrator, but could you clarify the term “open sign-up”? Many servers do not automatically approve new accounts to reduce malicious bot signups.
-
@Mastodon What would be great is to be able to see more than one server in the app, merged into a single feed...
-
@Mastodon I suggest a rule:
That the number of servers that defederate this specific server in her language is low.
To prevent toxic server.
-
@Mastodon can we have something like a quota? Not to overflow a small instance?
-
@Mastodon This is lovely, thank you so much! 💜
