His grand vision remains to leave Mastodon users in control of the social network, making their own decisions about what content is allowed or what appears in their timelines.

I don't use Mastadon cause I don't care for micro-blogging, but nevertheless, I like this.

Lack of search is my biggest gripe with Mastodon.

I follow hashtags, it's how i discover interesting content for me. I only use the search function to follow specific accounts.

Problem being that any instance only displays those posts under a hashtag that it knows about. Currently, if I follow #formula1 from my home instance, I'm seeing different posts than if I follow #formula1 from a certain other instance.

Will probably get better with developments in that aspect in the next few years.

So do I, but I can't even search for my own posts. It's frustrating.
