Uh... The same toot is showing up in my Home scroll every time someone I follow boosts it? I hope that's not intentional. I can't imagine that's going to scale well. I don't want the same thing in my Home scroll 100 times...?
The toot: https://mastodon.network/users/deoxxa/updates/11792
@deafferret It's like RT from days of birbsite past...
I don't have a strong feeling about it though, except to observe that it accurately reflects the attention the toot is getting.
@emdeesee Strikes me as something that needs to be fixed if Home scroll is going to be usable. I actually want to read my whole Home scroll, which will be impossible if 10,000 copies of the same toot are in it.
@deafferret I think it's part of how the backend works. Every time someone boosts a post, it spawns a separate protocol notification. "User X boosted this." That ends up as an entry in your home screen because it's fundamentally just a list of protocol messages in the order they came in with little processing
