dria is a user on octodon.social. You can follow them or interact with them if you have an account anywhere in the fediverse.
If you don't, you can sign up here.
This place needs a) a filter-by-language feature, and b) an option to subscribe to various instances so I can watch more than one without having to watch all of it.
@dria Would creating an account on the sites that you want to be more involved in be an option?
@iiogama If i can somehow be logged into multiple instances at the same time, sure. The problem is that currently the stream options are:
1) people I follow (currently few, because it's hard to find interesting people)
2) my local instance (where I know no one and it's relatively quiet), or
3) the Flood that is Global Federated (which is utterly overwhelming)
If I could subscribe to follow the streams of a few known-interesting (and mostly English) instances, that would help.
@dria I can understand why you would want that feature, but it sounds like it ignores the main purpose (perceived by me) of Mastodon, communicating across the typical barriers of social networks. If the instance you are on isn't serving your need, then I think you should consider finding another one. I see signing up for Mastdon as signing up for the instance first with the Fediverse a perk of the technology. (This is my totally opinionated response with no intention to offend)
