In an act of religious extremism a tourist from the US smashed 2 Graeco-Roman statues in the Israel Museum: a head of the goddess (2nd century CE) and a statue of a clutching the wheel of fate, symbolising the goddess (210-211 CE). The giffin statue, as evident from published photographs, was broken into pieces. The tourist had targeted the statues because he deemed them “idolatrous” and in opposition to the Torah (Old Testament).

Chiron sighed. Oh yes, they were of that age. Sex, sex, sex, that's all they ever think about...

@CoinOfNote Sadly, I don't. I haven't been very successful with bringing people over, unfortunately. Not even with people who should know better than to trust a corporate platform because they are NSFW creators. Most have flocked to BlueSky which... I honestly don't get it. There are no features, I can't even make lists of people I am interested in, so I keep missing my friends' posts.
I think the best we can do is help make a great first impression for those who DO give Mastodon a try 😐

@CoinOfNote I feel like the search is pretty good already. And there were some cool features on the roadmap. What I personally miss the most right now are quote toots and a way to see hashtags across all instances.

@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.social avatar

@taoish @CoinOfNote I cannot manually QT if I want to show off an artist's work without reposting their art.

Also I never said I don't get results from other instances?
But my topic is rather niche and it would be nice to see ALL results for a hashtag. Especially for events happening in real time like Eurovision etc. For small instances, such a service would be super helpful.

My personal use case aside: it is not helpful if someone says "I wish feature Y would exist here" to reply...

@taoish @CoinOfNote ...with an unhelpful comment that essentially boils down to "well, I don't have any issues".
Sorry, but this is exactly the kind of behaviour why people leave Mastodon.

@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.social avatar

@taoish @CoinOfNote I'm sorry, I thoroughly misread your message ❤️
On mastodon.social, I rarely get zero results but when I was on smaller instances it was a much bigger issue. I'm co-hosting the MythologyMonday hashtag on thefolklore.cafe and when we first started out, there were quite a few posts that didn't show up (but did show up when I searched from my personal account on mastodon.social).
Mastodon instances only get search results of instances they know, so a 3rd party crawler would be 👍

18+ AimeeMaroux,
@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.social avatar

@taoish @CoinOfNote You can search other instances, I think, so you could look up the hashtag on a bigger instance. Or a niche instance if it fits the search well. But the way federation works the only thing an individual user can do is following lots of people from lots of different servers.
