Are Mastodon users really happy with thread behavior? So, for example, this post had a lot of replies, but even if you look at it on the original instance you can't see any of them. You can see my reply to the post on my server, but it is no longer connected to the original post. So it is often impossible to read old threads (& of course even to see all replies on a current one).

@rscottjones @ClaireFromClare @histodons I'm not so much interested in a "permanent record"--people can delete their posts here and also on every other platform. But not being able to read old threads of non-deleted posts (and by old I mean like a month ago) is a frustrating aspect of the fediverse. Posse looks interesting but sometimes I am just looking for someone's useful answer to a question, etc.

@rscottjones @ClaireFromClare @histodons @otfrom

But also: I know why the other frustrating thread behavior happens (that you often can't see all the replies to a thread because no one on your instance is following another instance, etc.). I don't know why this one happens? Why would a response become detached from a thread?

@ClaireFromClare @histodons Oh, also, what are the "new abilities to consolidate comments:?
