After a post of shame where I found out this is where I look for support, I now have multiple questions

  1. How do I delete a post?

  2. How do I follow a user?

  3. I use thunder, is it just missing following ppl and dm’ing or am I blind?

    Wouldn’t that be a complete hassle, having to manually embed multiple communities over and over, you got reasons why you dont use an app instead, I’m speaking mobile app wise, not desktop

      The time it takes to browse each feed and to go to the next builds over time and can be tiresome after a while. Plus sites usually don’t allow hiding seen posts (e.g. Twitter), and the ones that do are usually slow at that (e.g. Mastodon). And also, RSS feeds allow having a local backup of who you follow, without the risk of shadowbans (e.g. Youtube silently unsubscribing you) or the site you had those you follow go dark overnight (e.g. kbin.social). And lastly, it helps controlling just how much clogging there is in your feed - after all, people only have so much time on Earth.

      So generally speaking, I’d say it is slow at first, but helps in the long run.

        Appreciate your responses man, learned something new today, not sure it’s my cup of tea, but I can understand the full control appeal
