Real talk:
It is utterly exhausting to look at my notifications every morning (which is a difficult slog as it is with this many followers) and see response after response saying "just mute/block those folks" again and again.
I'm gonna make this as clear as I can:
On Twitter,
this. was. not. a. thing. I. had. to. do.
I can probably count on one hand the number of times I had to block people because, get this, Twitter had a quality filter which caught most insufferable people
@TechConnectify I wish someone would make a Mastodon fork (or just a client?) with more algorithmic stuff (timeline sorting, recommended content, reply filtering...). As an option.
I get that some people are ideologically opposed to it, but I don't care; I don't like algorithms when they're built to make money off of my data, I like them when they improve the UX, like they can in that case.
