   Dear fellow techies:

   If you have a great idea for a fediverse tool, and it's amazing that nobody's done it yet... ask around. Especially ask PoC and LGBT folks.

   There might be very good reasons it hasn't been done yet.

   Or--it might have been done already, multiple times, and raised a storm of protests that drove each developer into shelter. You don't want to be that person.

   The fedi needs tools! The fedi needs activitypub hackers! Don't waste your time writing code nobody wants, work with the community.

   Hint: we don't want indexers or search engines.

     @mwl I want a way to see what someone else's sees - a feed composed of posts by accounts they follow. An over-their-shoulder view.

     I really miss this feature from the good old #soupio days... It was a great way to discover interesting content and people!

     And it's all public info, right?
