@zleap @Miro_Collas @aral I think to be able to convince more people to join the fediverse , the fediverse should try to copy as many features as possible from the other traditional platforms. People join these platforms because of these features and don't want to lose them if they turn to Fediverse .
Groups, character limit on mastodon, video size , counts of likes/comments... Etc

We need more of the high quality content, and to interact with it, start conversations, the latter happens to a point. So attract users that way,

@zleap @Miro_Collas @aral Sometimes I think the developers (with all respect to them all sure ) are a bit conservative about copying features from other platforms even though the big tech companies are just copying each other. But yes we know there are many technical limitations..

@Filani @zleap @aral I am not sure copying is the right approach. Granted, some features from (for example) twitter, might be nice to have.
However I think a better approach is to listen to users, study how fedi us used, and build on that information. That may result in some copying, but also (hopefully) features which are unique to the fediverse.

@Miro_Collas @zleap @aral Personally I have no problem with copying. But I totally agree with you that " listen to users" is maybe the way to go
