One #Mastodon feature I'd love to have is being able to hide a toot after you've seen it boosted. I've seen the same toot about 20 times now as different people discover it.
@brainwane Same issue. Twitter and Tumblr have the same problem so if they haven't solved it, maybe it's not solvable. Or they just didn't want to.
@afabulous Huh. I haven't encountered this problem on Twitter, I think. Maybe it just wasn't as noticeable...
@brainwane so you only see the first retweet, no matter how many of your friends RT that tweet?
@afabulous I think so -- I shall need to watch more carefully!
@afabulous I was wrong. You're right. If I look at the Twitter homepage and see the RT'd tweet, then go away, and then someone else retweets it, then when I visit Twitter again, I see the RT'd tweet in my timeline again. Sorry for not remembering this!
@afabulous We're supposed to get these into the bug/issue/request tracker ourselves, like citizens rather than consumers, yeah?
@clew how do you report a bug?
@afabulous I noticed it in the introduction to here, hang on, I'll go look ----
(If you haven't used git, this may seem opaque, though git is trying to be clear and familarity might be useful in your job search so! DM me if you want more on it)
Issue tracker is here:
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues
And I found the link on the FAQ: https://github.com/tootsuite/documentation/blob/master/Using-Mastodon/FAQ.md
@afabulous I'm right there with you. Is https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/1667 basically this issue to you? It is to me.
