GROWTH HACKING / SOCIAL MEDIA ONBOARDING TIP
heres my idea. when you click "What IS Mastodon?" it opens up a page with a live video feed, where you see @Gargron sitting at his computer, and he sighs and looks into the webcam and YET AGAIN explains what mastodon is, personally, to you, the user
it would actually be pretty Masto to have the "live feed" occasionally ACTUALLY be live
imagine how it'd screw with people comparing notes about the video, too
and recording the 'new' live ones, and inserting them in the feed choice, would maintain the illusion
(but you'd want a little disclaimer about it explaining the joke, so people wouldn't feel they were misperceiving the fact it was happening, I suppose)
@jk idea: whenever you click "what is ____?" anywhere on the internet then a drone in downtown new york activates and flies up to a random pedestrian on the street to ask that question for you
@jk this seems like the kind of thing a .com company in the 90s would come up with if drones were a thing back then
pulling information onto the world wide web!
