oh great can't wait to see how much more shit Mastodon 5.0 is

I'm sorry but I'm just not a fan of the design direction in Mastodon since 4.6, it is objectively terrible.

NO NO NO NO NO. absolutely fuck everything about this.

guess I'll be installing Sharkey or something, I want off this ride

@ariadne My composer has broken containment and hacked a rival social network. Please invest in our company to protect you from rogue composers.

yeah let's make the compose experience like fucking GMail, this is a great design concept

the enshittification of Mastodon nears completion

@ariadne in treehouse or for yourself?

@ariadne On web, I like it on the side because it never interferes with anything I'm reading in the main pane. I use a different app anyway, so not sure how it'll change on mobile.

@chinmay for myself

@ariadne Sharkey's message composition window isn't in the sidebar either

@ariadne whats the problem

@whitequark the problem is I don't want to use fucking GMail

@noisytoot I didn't say it needs to be in the sidebar. the issue is that it's a fucking modal

@eldersea well you're going to hate this because they've replaced it with a modal

@ariadne Sharkey's composition window is a modal

@noisytoot oh, for fucks sake

@ariadne

Top reason I do this in @ivory

Enhancement != Improvement

@ariadne Well they can modal deez

@ariadne All the new clicks it takes to navigate 4.6. UGH Enshitifcation indeed, not to mention the ugly box style designs.

No looking forward to the composer breaking free...
