Jill ☁<p>Ohhh :mastodon: I am not sure if I like this new "See more replies on servername.social" message, cutting off the rest of the comments of a post or implying that there could be more even there are not and in order to find out having to leave the home server and jumping to another site (tab on desktop). </p><p>Also this way, if there are more comments it's not possible to interact further. </p><p>Why would you want that?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/MastodonDevs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastodonDevs</span></a> #🤔</p>
Jill ☁<p>Dear :mastodon:​ devs,<br>could you kindly please get rid of the colour cast that appears automatically when in picture mode? This is just terrible for the eyes, makes absolutely no sense and destroys the experience and intent of all perfectly colour graded photographs and drawings. - Or maybe let us individually chose whether to turn it on or off? 💜</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Mastodon</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@MastodonEngineering" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>MastodonEngineering</span></a></span> <a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/MastodonDevs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastodonDevs</span></a> #📷​ #🖼️​ <a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/MastoArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoArt</span></a> #😭​</p>

max oakland<p>Mastodon Devs: 3 things are turning away millions of people. Do you have any plans to fix these?<br>1. Having to pick a server when you sign up<br>2. Have to copy &amp; paste links to other servers because of awkward federation implementation<br>3. No quote tweets. Why is this such an issue?</p><p>Mastodon will never take off with the general public until these are fixed.
