In our latest #Mastodon for Android release, we're making it easier than ever to share profiles using QR codes, among a number of other usability improvements:

@bhhaskin @Mastodon hands down the most common response when I had it with me at a large gathering. Getting past that, the most amusing thing was people didn't know you could SCROLL DOWN! newfangled things and all!

@Mastodon I don't see the update on F-Droid @fdroidorg . If that isn't already in progress, please accept a polite ping. Thx f-droid.org/packages/org.joinm

@KO6YQ @Mastodon @fdroidorg If you don't want to use the Play Store, you can also download an APK directly from our GitHub releases page. The F-Droid package is managed by F-Droid and seems to be a few versions behind.

@Gargron @Mastodon @fdroidorg OK, thanks. It isn't that I don't want to use Play Store. I wanted to support the Open Source project. So this thread has already brought the polite ping to the attention of @fdroidorg . It looks like their automated build got stuck, and maybe they needed to know about it.

@Mastodon Fun idea. I do not know anybody in my surroundings that use Mastodon but maybe handy in the future.

@Mastodon How did you managed to put your logo in the middle of the QR codes? Does the software delete the pixels under / overlay the logo on the QR data and relies on error correction or does it work by drawing data around the logo?

I have a few suggestions to improve things and I believe they are very much needed:

1. Setting to turn off the ability to download posts.

2. Setting for comments to bump posts to the top of our profile feed (but under the pinned posts)

3. Profile featured tags should be unlimited.

4. Profile featured tags also needs to work correctly and not show everyone else's posts under the tags

5. When scrolling down our profiles, we should be able to see the number of likes etc on a post

@Mastodon
So many other IMPORTANT features are needed.
I've already suggested them to github.

1. Do away with the 500 character limit.
2. There SHOULD be a setting to make it so others can't download our posts. So important
3. Comment bumping of posts. Also important
4. The featured hashtag list has a few issues but mainly, it doesn't work right.
5. The featured list should also be unlimited. 10 just isn't enough.
6. Notifications need to have time stamps. So if someone liked a post...

Hey guys, how does one obtain the freedom to post long-ish posts? Have seen many, but the moment I try a few more characters, it's a red-marked indication that I should cut down.
Genuine question, and I wish for such freedom and facility. Thanksmuch.
