@upside wow, whats that? It looks like it could be perfect for this https://discourse.joinmastodon.org/t/join-mastodon-landing-page-feedback-thread/
@upside that looks _really_ nice! Is it currently only searching about/more text or is it doing somthing else with hashtags?
@chrismartin Yah, pretty much about/more, plus meta data like toot count, connections, etc.
I think the toot samples might accidentally be searched, too, now that I think of it.
@upside the one thing to keep in mind if its going to mainly be about/more is that (for example) currently searching "scifi" only returns scifi.fyi while I know there are more instances that are also fitting (tenforward.social, off the top of my head).
not a huge problem though as admin can always add tags to their about/more page.
@upside @chrismartin YES - THIS! I have been looking for an instance list w/ about info! Now maybe I can find my tribe (if such a thing exists). Thank you!
@chrismartin So I stuck it up on the discourse. Thanks for the suggestion!
I doubt they'll integrate it due to the generation script I use, but at least the info's out there 😄
@chrismartin It's an instance picker I'm working on.
It's a bit of a browser killer ATM, but with a little patience you can play with it here:
