One of the worst misfeatures of #Mastodon from a safety angle: If you get an abusive reply to your post, you can't remove it even by blocking the person.

One of the worst misfeatures of #Mastodon from a safety angle: If you get an abusive reply to your post, you can't remove it even by blocking the person. Even after blocking, your server still shows the abusive reply to everyone else.

There has been a patch ready to fix this for 2 years, 6 months, and 1 day. @Gargron has not approved it, and has provided *zero* explanation for why he will not allow it to be merged.

This is why I don't think Mastodon is the future of Fediverse in the long run

@graue @Gargron why not @gagron?

@PlasticJohnny @graue Don't nag him too much about his bad decisions, he's blocking people doing so. Generally don't expect proper explanations from him for decisions or lack thereof.

Mastodon got a huge governance problem. At some point it needs to be forked by a more capable group or institution.

Yearning for the day when disgruntled Masto users lift their eyes to the better software the Fedi already has...

...but, no, when they do lift their eyes it's to external platforms funded by venture capitalists.

So frustrating.

@Uraael @Gargron @graue @michaelcoyote *opens her eyes - sees infighting over which one of the dozen misskey forks is best, worse than with linux distros* (tho i do want to switch to another, better moderated mastodon instance. just need someone to give me a step by step guide as if i was tech illiterate)

@graue The famous Eugen silent treatment. Oooof
