A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Mastodon has terrible discoverability. It feels like a ghost town. It's just not suitable as a Twitter replacement.
I think this is the primary hitch.
Personally, if there was a service like Bluesky that let you choose your algorithm instead of just being purely chronological, I would jump on that very fast. That's what Bluesky's killer feature is, imo.
Apart from, y'know, not being the hellsite that is Twitter.
I mean, if Bluesky can let you create/choose custom algorithms for your feed, why can’t Mastodon?
