@JonnyT@chartier Yeah, I can't speak at all to Bluesky or Meta platforms. I just know that Mastodon search needs to be at parity with Twitter search. Oh, and quote posts, too.
@dangoodin@chartier I'm of the opinion that Twitter is already dead. I give it 6 months at most. Once it's gone, there isn't going to be another platform with search parity with Twitter. That era of access to almost everything on a platform will die with it. Mastodon could be that but I don't think the ethos of the place and the people building it will permit it.
Calckey supersedes Mastodon in terms of search etc but I'm not sure it'll get big enough either.
@JonnyT@chartier Twitter may or may not be dead, but at the risk of repeating myself, Mastodon will never catch on without the capabilities I've mentioned.
Other platforms in the Fediverse, e.g. Calckey, that I'm using right now, have both Quote posts and full search and we're suffering zero ill effects from either. Coming from Twitter myself that has really surprised me.
