The information I am missing the most from Mastodon profiles is people's geographic location.

The information I am missing the most from Mastodon profiles is people's geographic location.
Again and again I see posts like "We have had so much rain this summer", or "the pelicans are back", and the first question I have is "where?"
Then when I look at the poster's profile there is no location mentioned.
I warmly recommend revealing at least your country and region, if not your city as well. Context will make your posts make more sense.

@randahl @MartinVuilleme no! just ... no.
there are VERY real reasons someone may keep their location (even generic ones) off their profile and their posts. your lack of context for a post is not a reason for me to potentially reveal my location to people who want to harm me.
can't relate? scroll on. maybe it's not for you.
