Tell you hwhat, I think the focus of the next release after 2.0 is finally going to be groups, because I really feel we're missing that now
@Gargron groups and chatrooms can be very nice
@Gargron Please tell us more !
@Gargron yessssss
I vote for a default group with all users on the local instance so that we can do local-only toots finally
@noiob Immediately no.
@noiob Lance Ulanoff isn't *too* important.
@zyabin101 but how will William Shatner find him otherwise?
@noiob He isn't gonna. That's a meme that should have been forgotten long ago. Shatner x Ulanoff is out of date already.
@noiob At least, they run out of the trend.
@Gargron 
pls fix 
because I am afraid we have broken him
@Gargron
do you already have ideas to share with us ?
@Gargron ooooo~
How will they work?
@Gargron also I suppose a filter function in timelines would be nice, too. And ban words.
@Gargron URI handling :x
@Thib Elaborate please
@Thib but how specifically does it relate to groups?
@Gargron oh no sorry, I was suggesting it as a “focus” for the next version, it does not relate to groups
@Gargron @Thib
Thib created a simple way of getting a rss feed of the tagged posts https://social.sitedethib.com/tags/hashtag.atom (doesn't work anymore) but it sees only the tagged posts coming into his instance.
Would there be a way to federate that in order to be able to see all the posts of the Fediverse bearing the selected hashtag?
@Gargron that'll be great.
But, IMHO, I think there are some usability/UX things that can help attract more 'regular' (non-tech/FOSS/nerd) people here.
See these toots: https://mastodon.social/@falcon/21164767
@falcon /web/blocks is a list of blocked users, accessible from /web/getting-started. You can also go to your profile by clicking on your name / avvie from below the search bar and get to the follow list that way, from the web app.
@kjhoerr
oh right, I can't understand how did I not see that.
@Gargron +1 for groups, then pools, maybe events. It would make Mastodon not only better Twitter replacement, but also great alternative for Facebook etc.
@MarcinMikolajczak @Gargron POLLS!!! that would be great
@Gargron What is this feature you are talking about?
@Gargron I’d love to see group support! 😀 It’s just about the only feature I see GNU social has and wish Mastodon had.
@Gargron HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT OH MY GOD GARGAMEL WE LOVE YOU
@Gargron Very yes!
@Gargron how about lists?
@Gargron That would be great! The most important thing is that those groups federate perfectly to all subscribers. Also invitation only groups would be great.
@Gargron is it possible to follow hashtags? Permanently kind of saved search?
@ao37 open the hashtag -> click on icon in the header -> "pin column"
@Gargron how do you foresee helps groups (parade? Herd? 😉) working?
@Gargron That would be awesome.
