They were chatting about "quote posting", I have no idea WTF they're referring to. Is it using `> ` to create a blockquote in a message? I don't know... probably some twitter term hence why I wouldn't know it.
They chat about the Bluesky bridge; I still fail to see why there's a bridge that's needed in the first place. They developed a social media platform with the intent to be federated; just use the already accepted standards instead of trying to reinvent it themselves. It's like Novell trying their hardest to push IPX when IP was already in place, then additional software translation needing to be built to support this arbitrary protocol.
5% search selection sounds about right. Mastodon has a lot of work needed to improve the UX, this stat is indicative of that; most users don't even realize there's a "Settings" section of any of their accounts.
37min: I'm sorry, I can't do long-form content on Mastodon? Have you SEEN some of my articles? Some of them are pretty damned lengthy! They're correct that it's server centric, but fail to go into the tidbit that it's open source, so the operator can choose to modify the software to allow for things like long-form content.
39min: Eh? Wasn't the idea with Threads and Bluesky to be federated platforms from the get-go? Or were they originally just aiming for the traditional (and failing) monolithic centralized concept? If bluesky wasn't originally federated, but added it afterwards, that's even more irritating that they didn't use a published standard for a new feature.
He reminds me of a buddy of mine who built an eCommerce bridge application to cross sell/dropship between Amazon and Ebay. I don't know how I feel about that...
I still don't understand WTF Flipboard is; it appears to just be Yahoo news, ie: a bunch of public news articles plopped on a page... How is that federation? Is it considered federated as Wordpress has a federated plugin where blog posts can be sent to users directly via follow requests? Clicking "follow" on a topic just takes me to the register page on Flipboard...
56min Yeah, the dude in the red shirt has a good point, how "federated" follow count and "internal" follow count is a little awkward. Why is there a differentiation between federation system, (at least when possible).
Their lack of split screen feels off. Why does each speaker require full screen one-at-a-time when they're having a conversation with each other? It would feel much more natural if they were side by side as they were conversing.
Yeah... probably not quite the feedback you were interested in, but those were my thoughts as I was listening to the video.
