An interesting upcoming update to the Mastodon Android app.

"Profiles now show who of the people you follow also follows this person"

And a few nice smaller updates as well.

@[email protected] love this!!

able to see the mutual Venn diagram is a great way to increase the pool. Made so many contacts on Twitter by using this instead of the # of overall followers

@[email protected] Yes, but I hope they will make this feature more useful by showing you mutual followers across all servers, not just the one you are on.

Unfortunately, this only works for accounts that are on the same server as you.

If I view an account that's on, say, mastodon.social, I don't see this section, as I am on my own server.

So, not super useful for people on smaller servers.

Bummer.

On a second thought, now that I'm migrating my bots to my own server, this is actually kind of neat for knowing which of my bots are popular with my friends. So there's that!

@[email protected] Cool feature, but basically meaningless if it doesn't display other servers. Hopeful the feature gets extended.

@[email protected] Yep, my thoughts exactly!
