   today's lesson for me: if i open a mastodon thread and see a set of replies, there's zero guarantee these:
   - are the same replies others see
   - are the same replies OP sees
   - are a reasonable, close subset of any of those
   - don't magically omit all of the harassment someone receives

   this is, fucked up

     @whitequark
     The mobile app I'm using has a single click button to fetch replies as they are seen from the original post's server.

     I am guessing that this isn't a priority from the mastodon team because it is a competitive advantage for their mega-instance.

     this is like. really bad on the same level as Matrix lying to you about messages being sent being really bad

     I _hate_ computer systems that confidently lie to me

     i think this might be the thing that finally makes me migrate off Mastodon as software
