Things Mastodon Has that GoToSocial Doesn't

Things Mastodon Has that GoToSocial Doesn't:

1. The Ability to Edit Posts
2. Trends (trending hashtags)
3. A Post UI built into the platform (GTS requires a third-party UI for this like Phanpy, Elk, Tusky, Semaphore, etc)
4. Full-text search of Public posts (optional)

Things GoToSocial Has That Mastodon Doesn't:

1. Interaction Policies (Reply Control)
2. Federation Thread Crawling, to Fill out Missing Replies
3. RSS feeds disabled by default, can be opted-in at a per-user level, you can control whether or not just Public or Public + Unlisted (Mastodon default) are included in the RSS feeds.
4. Visibility of Unlisted posts via HTML is disabled by default, you can also disable all HTML visibility of Public posts, too. (you can't do either in Mastodon)
5. You can enable Markdown support for posts (available in Mastodon only in Glitch fork)
6. Authorized Fetch enabled by default (this is off by default on Mastodon)
7. 5000 character default for post limits, configurable (500 on vanilla Mastodon, not configurable)
8. 6 max poll items, configurable (Not configurable on vanilla Mastodon)
9. 6 max media items, configurable
10. Poll option max characters, configurable
11. Custom CSS for Profiles (Optional)
12. Spam Filtering Mode

That's just off the top of my head.

Removed a 'coming soon' entry, which isn't really a fair comparison.
