Coming soon in Mastodon 4.6 - a redesigned profile page.

[imanijoy@mastodon.social]

@kayrah87 this has been on my mind as well – in fact, I addressed in in my talk last week at FOSS Backstage design. I'd love to hear your thoughts in more detail sometime.

@wordsmith @Mastodon these are the real questions!

[stefan@stefanbohacek.online]

@katzentratschen Agreed!

I also rated this lower on my list of what I look for when it comes to "trust and interest", but only because the other signals are more important to me.

I still want to see this information.

@Mastodon But loving the more compact custom fields, those look great!

[drangnon@hachyderm.io]

@Mastodon you are aiming at lower tech users and are adding the local server regardless of whether it's the one of the viewer.

1 - how does this impact the user experience if they browse a post and try to boost it? or follow while viewing on a server not their own?
2 - it might be good in the tool tip to call out iff the server matches that of the user and say "this person's posts will show up in your local feed". (I'm not sure how to phrase it to be clear and not clutter, but that matters)

I find the tiny space we're allocated on the left side to write posts and replies very off putting. It's too small and feels strange having to focus on the side of my screen instead of the centre. I find myself leaning to the left when I'm writing to correct for that, which isn't comfortable. Would prefer something in the middle and also inline when replying to others.

Thanks, J.

@Mastodon @imanijoy 99,9999999% of people I speak with say that they won't leave Facebook only because that's where they can talk wit (older) relatives...

Sooo??

[lillyherself@mastodon.social]

@Mastodon @imanijoy It's looking really good 🤩! My compliments to Imani

[iamdannyboling@mstdn.social]

@Mastodon

"If a note exists, it still displays on the profile page, just as it has in the past."

YAY!!! Please don't ever remove this feature. I use it all the time and find it very helpful.

@imanijoy

[hwll@sunny.garden]

@katzentratschen @Mastodon one of the advantages of being on the flagship instance I guess

[katzentratschen@mastodon.social]

@hwll @Mastodon Indeed. You get some glimpses of design tests, too. Including bugs. 🤪

[tragivictoria@mastodon.catgirl.cloud]

@liilliil@mastodon.online @Mastodon@mastodon.social what?

[artusamak@piaille.fr]

@Mastodon @imanijoy so cool ! Thank you !

[hannes99@mastodon.social]

@imanijoy same for polls, please! I've seen others doing this already (with Mastodon, not other softwares), but probably they used a certain Mastodon app to do this.

@jeremyjackson @Gamrok @Mastodon

[distante@mastodon.social]

@Mastodon Add a handy keyword search function to profile posts

[madeindex@mastodon.social]

@Mastodon @imanijoy Looking forward to it, going to miss the nerdy layout but a cleaner design like dat is probably better in the long run, especially for UX

@FinchHaven @Mastodon

I'm looking at your profile on the mastodon.social site (running an early 4.6) and your home instance and other than the custom fields being compacted a bit, I don't really see much of a difference:

[satchmo35@mas.to]

@Mastodon @imanijoy Are we able to add hashtags to lists yet? I get way too many in my home feed and rarely remember to look at them straight-up otherwise.

[cmconseils@mastodon.social]

@Mastodon @imanijoy hello ! I can't see the exact date i joined mastodon anymore

[gunchleoc@mastodon.scot]

@mackaj @imanijoy @kayrah87 If you need something more Facebooky, you could also take a look at Friendica. You can interact with Mastodon from there too.
