Thank you for a detailed report @tadano !
Yes, docs and missing features will be gradually added over time, I agree that reactions, emoji autocomplete and admin UI are very nice to have.
I have a couple of questions/comments:
>no emoji reacts, even husky seems to filter out notifications for them
The default Mitra frontend should notify about incoming emoji reacts. Are you saying that these notifs are not displayed in Husky?
>replies in threads kind of janky (I know dev is working on it)
Could you elaborate? They seem to be working fine on my instance.
>no quote posts (not terribly salted peanuts about this but mite be cool to see)
You can make a quote post from a thread. Open the post menu and select "Repost with comment". It is also possible to add a quote to a post using the special wiki-like syntax: [[activitypub_id]] (see the doc).
>no markdown options for posts
A subset of markdown is already supported. Do you need some markdown feature that is not currently supported (e.g. headings)?
>wish default UI was more customizable (e.g. like how you can change the background, logos, front-page, etc. on Pleromer) I could be full of shit assuming you could just muck with the assets directly for results
Currently it's a bit complicated because you will need to re-build the frontend: https://codeberg.org/silverpill/mitra-web#customization
I want to improve that though.
