What is this, then? It’s on the front page of a Mastodon server before you log in and afterwards the discovery section with posts, hashtags, people etc. is on the search page after login. Bluesky was far harder to get a decent feed going on till people started building lists (and those are pretty flawed in that you only follow the individuals - not the list - so it doesn’t update for subscribers).

Lots of little things that add up. Some of the better include temporary muting, hashtags, and hashtag subscriptions. Plus it is resilient with no single point of failure.

Mastodon has far more features. What it doesn’t have is centralization.

I'd take it even further: Cars used to be cool - in the 50s to late 60s. Modern cars look so bloody bland in comparison. I'm sure there were duds as well, but the models that show up in period pieces look way cooler than anything we have today.

Straight out of one of those Sonic games where you can choose your own character.

No surprise. It's the worst for people, after all.

Hope you get an answer you can use. If you're in the HLA-B27 group, know that there are community organized help forums out there and let me know if you want a link or two :)
