I feel like mastodon at times falls a bit behind on some features, would be cool to see if we can implement native gifs as per
Feature suggestion: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/25742
Threads has implemented a native experience which is superior than copying and pasting a gif using a 3rd party keyboard or having to hunt it down from the web
Ref: https://www.threads.net/@threads/post/Cy32ZRHOzuC/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D
On that note, we are also missing emoji reactions, feels like we fall behind on the “fun” features
I’m just saying ease of use is a big thing, gifs work but are such a hassle to use compared to any other platfor.
someone can reply using a 3rd party keyboard like you said
But from a UX/UI perspective that’s so piss poor compared to every other platform lol
Mastodon should be freedom of choice but that shouldn’t be a hindrance either
Otherwise, other platforms such as threads will implement better features first, be better in general, people will choose that platform, and everyone’s gonna complain about how evil meta overtook activitypub/fedi
I’m just saying 🤷♂️😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨
