Woo! As you may have seen from that previous boost, Mastodon 2.9 is now out, featuring a new single column interface:

https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2019/06/mastodon-2.9/

This is, IMHO, a huge step forward for getting non-technical people onto Mastodon 👍

Instead of the Tweetdeck-style interface, there's now a default single-column timeline which is much less scary.

(The multicolumn original is still an option in Settings, and those who currently use multicolumn will continue to see it by default.)
