  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

I've said this a bunch of times, but Mastodon's use of a chronological feed is what kills it. What it really needs is for the default tab to be a "trending" tab, cause that's what users want to see.

Mastodon’s use of a chronological feed is what kills it.

Funny, that's exactly the reason I like Mastodon's feed over traditional social media. No bullshit being pushed, just the people I'm following and the posts they make.

You're saying this... On Lemmy. You do know we have three different "trending" settings here, right?

I honestly much prefer the idea of a chronological feed too, but disagree that's what kills a platform. Tumblr has both the chronological and the trending for you/for all, and it was also ignored.

Don't forget that some people have more than one account

Which are optional so what's your point?
