Global search must be opt in (it already is for server-local full text searching). Some people have difficulty of finding accounts to follow. A global search of profiles and an algorithm can help (if it’s done well).

I use them when I have a thought and don’t want to look like I’m criticizing a fresh post from someone else. Or when I have already posted too much about a given topic. Or when I’d like to promote something I have written at the best possible time but am not home at that time.

@rauschma

okay! :)

this makes sense. I'm glad to learn some of the changes will be opt-IN.

edit: IMHO, may be it'd be nice if some are noted as upcoming changes that lots even most of people support, rather than problems/bugs that need fixing. And noting which will be Opt-IN (hopefully most) vs. Opt-out.

thanks for your survey and asking these questions. It's very cool, and very Mastodonian of you to do so.
