I don't mean to be rude, but come on... the way this is written is totally out of touch with the Fediverse community...

Luckily Mastodon continues to be awesome

@imanijoy

On any other platform I would expect that "...will introduce major improvements to the core user experience." would translate into AI surveillance and other sh!ttyf!cation πŸ˜‰

Have a look at the Trumpet Client for Linux, it does many things right what the mastodon webinterface does wrong. Most "non-tech" users I brought to mastodon left because "complicated and ugly af" 😞 All the best, and dare to change!

That is absolutely our intent. The sprint is referring to the 5-days of workshops Imani is holding in May. The learnings from these workshops and surveys will be discussed, shared, and incorporated into a design for 5.0 over the course of months, with 5.0 slated to release in the Fall.
