@simonwoods has made a single request of @manton for 2024:

‘Mute Specific Conversations’

Which made me ask myself which would be mine. Behold …

When you look at a profile and you are told how many accounts that ‘they follow that you don’t’ … order all the accounts so that the micro.blog accounts are first - and THEN list the (often) hundreds of Mastodon accounts.

@JohnPhilpin Both good. Sorting alphabetically by Micro.Blog accounts first in the editor also comes to mind.

@JohnPhilpin 4,000+ follows!!!! Wowza. I like your suggestion. There are a few things keeping me on Mastodon, one of those is the ability to organize people I follow into groups. I’d love for that to be an option here.

@Denny No, no, that’s not your number. Go to John’s profile and see how many people you’re NOT following. That’s the Philpin Number.

@pratik not sure which way the magnitude works; but, I am the yin to @JohnPhilpin’s yang (or vice versa, no idea which is masculine and don’t care either way). Together we balance the MB shared universe. I am currently following those of y’all with which I interacted during my last is-this-thing-on moment (I’d imagine the degree to which some of what I say can unsettle in combination with post October 7th America has led to an unfollow or three so I’d be surprised if 19 people were still following ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).
