> Call me when the Fediverse has a search function that actually fucking works.
Actually that's a feature. If search doesn't work, there is less incentive for bots polluting others people searches.
On the other hand, search works so bad than even connecting to people you know on other networks is painful.
It's not even about connecting to other people. I'm a toxic, friendless miserable asshole. I don't have anyone to connect with.
All I use social media for is to look at whatever funny piece of media I'm obsessed with currently and related things.
Unfortunately, Mastodon both has busted search and useless tags. Tumblr's search has been hilariously bad for ages now, but at least the tagging system is so comprehensive it more than makes up for it.
Mastodon is the worst of all worlds in that aspect.
