I HATE :

  1. Users who put 20 hashtags on their toot
  2. twitter cross-posting toot
  3. bot which pollute timeline with pre-formated stupid toot

Let’s continue the list !

    I can’t stand so many things about the twitter style of social media.

    • Based around following people: not communities or topics. If I follow a person, I have to see all of their posts no matter how unimportant to me it is. I might like a person’s input on star trek, I really don’t care if they’re drinking their second red bull that morning.
    • There are tags, but no voting, no sorting, and no moderation, so they’re mostly garbage.
    • No way to see what’s popular: or sorting based on voting whatsoever. Updates stream in, which means you can’t subscribe to more than a few people unless you want your entire day to be gone.
    • Length-limited content emphasizes gotcha soundbytes, and not discussion.
    • No tree-based commenting: meaning I have to click into a lot of threads just to see replies.

    The only thing I really hate is the polarization. I like hearing different viewpoints from people who disagree with me, but oftentimes people will outright block you for disagreeing with them, or even associating with “the wrong people”.

    People who won’t stop talking about Twitter. My dude you’re preaching to the choir. Let’s just let past stay in the past and talk about how we can make mastodon better. Twitter cross posting people are definitely on my list as well.

    I honestly don’t mind the hashtags because without a proper search function hashtags are the only way you reach other instances.

    at this point I kinda like the twitter cross-posting bots… . . I wish you could respond to them. . .kind of a universal mastodon twitter account with sub-accounts … .also maybe a bit of promotion of mastodon on twitter . . …probably not doable
