Post #2290805

@thisismissem@hachyderm.io I'm going to try to say this with the most respect for you and your work. If it is not in mastodon mainline as a feature, it might as well not exist. The problem has never been ideas, protocols, or implementations, its always been adversarial relashionship from gargron and or the Mastodon GMBH leadership team. They clearly do not want to prioritise this feature and many other feaures that people asked for years (hello local only post). And the only people that can use this servers are: re-implementers, people that need a dedicated service to scale (and probbaly have multiple, high traffic instances), and hobbyist self hosters. All the people using masto.host/ 3rd parties won't be able to use it. Which I assume is the vast majority of the people wanting to have access to that feature in the first place. Unless Mastodon GMBH start to listen to their community (instance administrators), the complaining will continue I'm affraid. Again, trying my best here to convey that the work you did is needed and appreciated, and that my problems are with the people holding the power here.
