It would be great if you could enable or disable “Read Receipts” for a list of contacts instead of globally on or off.

Example: I would like my partner to see if I’ve read a message but not the rest of my contacts.

Könnte man bei #Mastodon irgendwie einstellen, dass man Beiträge die man schon gesehen hat nicht nochmal sieht. Insbesondere auch Beträge die man geliked/geboosted hat.
Oder vielleicht nur ein einzeiliger Hinweis, statt des gesamten Tröts.

Ich wünschte, ich könnte in #Tusky alle Posts mit bestimmten #Hashtags ausblenden lassen.

Something I miss in the #Pixelfed & #Mastodon software: the possibility to have lists (like the circles in Google+) and show some content really only for some close friends.
I don't wanna show everything to all and have more privacy. So I still need to send everything via Signal and co.
i have no idea if #misskey写真部 , #lemmy or any other #fediverse software has that feature.

@openvibe why do posts in the notification view look totally different then on the timelines?

I would like the notification view to look just like the other timelines.

I want open file formats with alt-text metadata that are compatible with most Fediverse software:
Upload an image or video to Mastodon, Pixelfed or whatever, that has alt-text metadata and it will automatically display the alt-text in the Fediverse.
Download the file and it will keep the alt-text.

Bonus: A metadata field for Fediverse creator. So people can download and repost media files and they will display the original creator just like Mastodon can do with link previews.

EDIT: In the replies we've gathered so far:
* There is an existing issue for Mastodon: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/14903 (I don't open Microsoft GitHub™, so I didn't read it)
* PNG and probably many other file formats already have appropriate metadata tags that could be used.
* Fedi devs have to agree on one way to implement this -> #FEP
* While uploading a file you should be able to edit or replace the metadata alt text with your own alt text and then be able to choose whether you want to replace the file's metadata or not (So your post can display the alt text that is specifically relevant to your post, while the file can be downloaded with a more general alt text).

@Gargron Is there any way to keep Lemmy posts like this out of our timelines other than blocking individual users and domains after the fact?

If there isn't, I wonder if you've contemplated service level filters. I'd definitely use it.

While I'm sure some users love getting posts like this, I bet there is a sizeable if not larger group that doesn't.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Mastodon makers, could we add some more options to the "Automatic Deletion" section of settings?

Currently it's only for our own posts but allowing for bookmark, favorite, and boost deletion with similar options would be pretty handy.

We need to keep this complex machine in top condition!

Hi @tagesschau, #FeatureRequest: Datumsangaben vor den Artikeln auf Themenseiten wie https://www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/digitales wären super!

#Mastodon #FeatureRequest

It would be really cool if you could post a second poll following a first, that was restricted to ONLY the people that voted in the first. Maybe a special "Post Privacy" button that says, "Only to voters in the previous poll" or something that's not quite so long and cumbersome.

Dear @signalapp and @Mer__edith ,

please allow me to ask for a Signal feature: can we please get the possibility to add a custom text to each photo we (bulk) share in chats and stories?

Actually you can only have one text for the whole story and bulk shared photos, but I am sure many of us like to share stories and stuff with text for each photo.

Thanks for thinking about it!

#featureRequest #Boost vorbehaltlich #Bildbeschreibung.

Oft seh ich gute Posts, die ich gern boosten würde, die aber keinen #alttext haben. Oft wird das später per Edit nachgereicht, was ich nicht mitbekomme.
Ich stelle mir das so vor:
- Ich drücke auf Boost und weil kein Alttext, Option vorbehaltlicher Boost
- Autor*innen sehen dass sie x vorb. Boosts haben und sind ggf. motiviert, Alttext zu ergänzen
- Bei Ergänzung werde ich notifiziert und kann nach Prüfung des Alttext den Boost committen

Mastodon Feature Request.

More in attached image...(including ALT text)

This is a Mastodon Feature Request I noted down on Etherpad.

https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/spam/timeslider#72

Mastodon should have a feature where you can write your posts in multiple languages, so that people don't have to rely on the automatic translation for those languages.

I'd like to provide my posts in both English and Danish, for example.

Feature Wunsch: KI-Wizard für Fragesteller

https://t3forum.net/d/863-feature-wunsch-ki-wizard-fuer-fragesteller

dear #DuckDuckGo or other search engine: I want a little button next to every #search result that lets me exclude it from all search results for me, personally, forever. With an option to block the entire domain.

I'm definitely looking at #pinterest but there's just a lot of #AI slop out there. Tons of AI-generated websites. Even without the AI search "helper" things, I get a lot of shit that is just really low quality.

I don't think I see this witih DDG (there is a "give feedback" button with unclear effects on my personal search experience) and I'm not familiar with many other search engines now (except google and no). But if there's something out there that already has this functionality, I'll be happy to check it out and happy for the referral.
