   Hey Fediverse Admins,

   Are you really going to let yourselves be outdone by Reddit?

   Block ALL Twitter links.

     @JessTheUnstill wow, yeah, that is obnoxious, even the admin UI doesn't let you do it without jumping through the hoop of file a report first, then you can delete posts in the report, and I guess they're not using the actual API to implement that? Yuck.

     The poor admin/mod experience continues to be a frustration with Mastodon.

     God that's annoying. It looks like Mastodon doesn't surface ANYTHING in the API that allows mods to delete individual posts ... So there's no way for someone to even write an autobot for this without screwing with the database directly I suppose...

     God this software sucks sometimes...

     Posting an X link doesn't feel like something that should get a user banned, IMO ...
