@chartier @Emtweetworld @hengstenberg I get that YOU and other people you know don't need discoverability, but many people, me included, do need it. Mark my words because I'll stand behind them: without a working search capability, Maston will remain on the fringes and be dwarfed by competitors.

@dangoodin @Emtweetworld @hengstenberg And maybe that's ok. If people want a toxic environment so badly, maybe they deserve a toxic environment.

Apparently some instances do have the ability to search. I can search on mine.

@ReneeWestberry Can you search tweets from other instances?

Dan Goodin replied to Black Chic with the Red Truck

@ReneeWestberry I don't see how the search box indicates that you can search posts from people on other instances. It's my understanding that the only way to search across instances is with hashtags. Maybe I'm wrong, though?

@dangoodin
Well I have used it and the results included posts from people on other instances. I haven’t tried to search for a specific person yet but it seems to offer me that option.

@ReneeWestberry @dangoodin Can’t you just view the Fediverse feed? Find people there?

@CarolynStirling @ReneeWestberry @dangoodin Naw, journos don’t do that. We commoners can do it, but they’re better than us.

@dangoodin @chartier @hengstenberg @Emtweetworld Ohhhh. I get it. You’re a journo. You guys seem to hate Mastodon in general, because God forbid you have to actually interact with the unwashed. 😑
