Not All Podcasts

I would not have guessed that reply guys replying to really popular accounts would ever check if their reply is a duplicate.

I didn’t catch that this is why Alec stopped posting there. I assumed he was just being sensitive to being a public figure in general.

When you make a channel that is filled with “well actually” and “turns out.” You should expect your audience is into doing the same.

And when you don’t have an algorithm filtering these for you… well, then you get the reality of other people’s interactions. Twitter just optionally hides this reality from big accounts. (I’m talking about what they use to label “low quality replies” or something similar.)

The federation issues of replies/boosts/hearts/etc are still a big bummer, though.

They want an algorithm.

As much as people mock it, or know it’s the source of why social media optimizes for outrage and other unhealthy behaviors, the algorithm is what they are missing on Mastodon.

As someone who always used third party Twitter apps, and never directly saw the algorithm in my timeline, mastodon feels like Twitter always did.

Makes me think of the Power Mac G4 Cube.

Major security/privacy holes in any technology should cause “recalls” too. 🤔
