mstdn tweets being called toots is horrible, they need a new name IMO...

There has been a new name for ages, they're called posts now, they're only called that by people who have been around for a while and liked the weird name. Being "professional" is boring

It’s ok to be quirky but the word toots gives a cheap knock off vibe, and I’m saying this as a lover of the fediverse.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago

They aren't called toots, other than by people who call them toots. I still call them toots for nostalgia sake and because I'm a sucker for whimsy

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

Clearly "twat" is the answer

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't understand why they're not just called posts

They are, the name was officially changed ages ago. They're only called Toots by Mastodon old-schoolers.

Toots are way better 😂

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 year ago

Based. I love it.

I'm worried this will make it harder for people to transition to mastodon as it's more of a shock. It would help if someone made a mastodon frontend to mimic twitter (shitty UI, paywalled, occasionally insert low quality AI generated posts, ads, read limits) for a smoother transition /s

"This doesn't suck enough. What are you people hiding??"

I think Mastodon should limit the amount of toots you can read in a day to 44 billion.

This has to be it. At first I thought it was foreshadowing of the meta meeting. Thank God it's just a little humour!

It’s 100% joking about Elon Musk’s Twitter.

Next report of usage should include the line:

Is there still no OLED/ pure black toggle?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Gotta love the shade

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I like the overhaul. It is a huge improvement, but I still think the 3rd party offerings are better in the user experience part for now.

More suggested servers! Nice.
