It's just not suitable as a Twitter replacement. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] drbluefall@toast.ooo 9 points 2 years ago (1 child) I think this is the primary hitch. Personally, if there was a service like Bluesky that let you choose your algorithm instead of just being purely chronological, I would jump on that very fast. That's what Bluesky's killer feature is, imo. Apart from, y'know, not being the hellsite that is Twitter. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] kahnclusions@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago (1 child) I mean, if Bluesky can let you create/choose custom algorithms for your feed, why can’t Mastodon? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sibachian@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago because Mastodon isn't designed to pray on people's lack of self control? permalink fedilink source parent [–] sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al [S] 5 points 2 years ago I would argue that what makes it good. Mastodon is only as good as you make it but you have to take personal responsibility. That's something that people should get accustomed to taking again. permalink fedilink source parent
