#Mastodon is getting a new look in our upcoming 5.0 release.
We wrote a bit more about our design process and how we approach community input. If you’re on mastodon.social you will see the new design tomorrow, on Tuesday. We rely on your feedback!

@Mastodon Love this design, so clean and modern, great work ✨
@Mastodon great developments!
I have one request, can you please adjust this heading? Especially the second word. Thanks.
Clarity trumps convenience
@mimi @mbootsman @Mastodon I’m guessing it’s because of the verb “trumps”.
We didn’t want to require you to have a GitHub profile to report issues or suggest ideas, so starting now you can do it on our new community forum.
You can also vote for other people’s ideas to keep things manageable. It’s the main place we’ll be looking for feedback!
Tried to comment on forum. In brief, I'm unable to use Mastodon now (on desktop). Notifications, Account buried under left column, center is one big amorphous feed (with this post appearing mid-thread), and entire right third is blank. Cannot easily see feed and notifications (my main activities) OR initiate a new post, as it's now a button, again, way down the left column. Unusable. 🥲
@Mastodon mastodon really is a great product! Well done on the design!
@Mastodon Instead we need accounts for that instead?
@Mastodon Or you could... look at your replies... on your social media site... that you run.
You know.
So we don't need to sign up for yet another site? Which doesn't even say it's a different login? It has the mastodon logo in the corner, ffs!
@Mastodon i hate the new version! 😂
Thanks for the feedback forum! :)
@Mastodon But we need to sign up for an account on Discourse to do it?
@Mastodon Thank you for the no-Github and for the discourse :-)
@Mastodon Now how about you stop trying to police the way people use the word mastodon like the fucking ministry of truth?
@Mastodon Thank you. I struggled with GitHub. Much nicer to have a human-friendly forum to report problems and provide feedback.
Already made my first UX feedback post.
@Mastodon So, why don't you use ActivityPub forums Lemmy?
@Mastodon amazing! Why not just a classic mailing list?
@Mastodon Great thx. Also thx to @codinghorror & team for providing that excellent piece of software.
@Mastodon Thanks for being inclusive with the non-techies with that community!
@Mastodon Any chance it would be possible to add logging in/signing up with a Mastodon/Fediverse account instead of having to create yet another one?
@Mastodon The kind of "detail" I do appreciate. Thank you !!!
@Mastodon
Did you guys stop using Zulip or are you keeping it for team coordination?
@tuneintodetuned @Mastodon We still use Zulip internally, but figured out that Discourse would be a better platform to engage with the broader community
@renchap @tuneintodetuned @Mastodon Could you enable AP plugin there? We did that on SocialHub: https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/ap/about
@Mastodon "We didn’t want to require you to have a GitHub profile"
Thank you. I don't think I'm technically-illiterate, but I still can't understand how that site works.
@Mastodon Thank you for finally addressing this issue, I think calling them "likes" and using a heart icon is way nicer, and most people nowdays will understand it way better!
