@clock@net.miaumuh.ch You can look at your list of followers to see who you want to follow, or the notifications give you a list. The solution is probably to not defer the decision. I'm not privy to the development process or familiar with the code. It's a long standing problem like the failure of clearing notifications in one tab to propagate to other tabs. The UX is significantly better than it was but some of the old problems remain, and some of the current development is not improving things. @_elena@mastodon.social

@zl2tod@mastodon.online @_elena@mastodon.social I cannot look at the list of my followers to examine the newly added followers because it doesn't print which of the followers were added since the last time I checked the "Notifications". Is there any other way except hovering over every avatar, waiting 10 seconds of spinning wheel for a lengthy update of following status, and then CTRL-click the avatar of every follower who I don't follow for later examination of their profile or timeline or whatever it's called in Mastodon, whether I want to follow them? Also I would appreciates if likes weren't called Favorites but links, and shares were not called Boosts but shares. I just find it unnecessarily confusing when switching from a proprietary social network.

@zl2tod@mastodon.online @_elena@mastodon.social I don't see "Followers" anywhere on the screen and since "list of followers" is by definition a list, it should be categorized in "Lists", but there is nothing in Lists, not even a list of followers:

@zl2tod@mastodon.online @_elena@mastodon.social I just realized the followers list is not enough, because I also want to examine people who boosted or favorited my post without following me.
