Currently being extremely disappointed by a certain popular person continuously complaining that, paraphrasing, Mastodon is not exactly like Twitter, and not actually doing anything with the many recommendations that have been provided over the past months
"I don't want to <do thing that would have solved the problem>"
Okay, your choice, but then *please* stop complaining that the problem is unsolved, if you do not wish to entertain the solutions
@joepie91 tbf at that scale it's a bit more complicated and *a lot* of work. It would certainly help though.
I think the main point of conflict is that person expects the platform to do the work, while the platform expects the users to do the work.
@Vampire My problem is more with that this has been explained time and time again, and I have seen basically zero willingness to put in any work, and equally zero effort to understand why things work how they do and that they may simply not be the intended audience (eg. around CWs)
I can understand having a wrong expectation, given eg. the poor reporting in media - but once that understanding has been corrected, if someone insists on retaining the same expectation, *then* it becomes a conscious choice
@Vampire And so in the end, to just call it what it is, it essentially evaluates down to "privileged dude is demanding that everybody caters to their desires, damn the consequences for marginalized folks who already have nowhere else to go"
Which is uh, Not Great
