@kissane thanks. I like your summary of Mastodon UI problems, and you even pointed out a few I didn't know about. The general attitude of FOSS developers about UI is…not good, and this is an instance of it. It is also why, despite its advantages in security and respect for the individual, FOSS has not yet conquered the world.

@kissane I'd like to seriously engage with some of these criticisms, but it's really hard for me not to just marvel at how broken the way people think about the internet is. Let us imagine, for a moment, that someone published a UX critique of Thunderbird. Like, fundimentally we'd know we are talking about an email client. Even if someone wrote a UX critique of gmail there would still be this cultural understanding that we are talking about one view of this thing called Email. (cont.)
