@Gargron But I would use it more if it also showed the accounts that had posted actively within the last 3 months.

Not since the categories were removed. It feels a bit pointless on large instances if there are no keywords. Maybe it is useful on smaller instances?

@Gargron it has proven useful when looking for top accounts in a given instance of interest. One of the things that would help is sorting by popularity (iirc the last time I tried it only sorted by most recently active)

Eugen Rochko

@sadman Yeah it was sort of useful originally when it was sorted by popularity, but there were some protests against that which led to the nerfing of the feature, and I get the feeling it might as well not exist now

@Gargron I never knew it existed — or perhaps I used it and didn't know what it was called.

seb - buttons are toys!

@Gargron Making it sortable by number of posts, followers and/or days since last post would likely improve the usefulness by a lot.

@Gargron didnt know it existed till just now. Seems neat, might check it out soon

Mike Rockwell

@Gargron I use it every few weeks. It’s an essential tool for small and single-person instances.

@Gargron I just now tried it. Thanks for the tip!

@Gargron I keep getting repeated notifications that this poll has ended.

FediFollows

@Gargron

This poll's ending notifications are flooding my account, dozens of them and new ones keep appearing every ten seconds.

Stu

@Gargron I didn't use it because I didn't know that it was a feature

ToroidalCore

@Gargron I'm getting a flood of notifications for this poll too.

Nyaa

@Gargron I missed the poll, but I use it a bit. I would probably use it more if there was a way for people to categorize their account by topic and you could filter by topic in the directory.

@Gargron
