@wendyhermedy@vivaldi.net Here is an article which gives you several options: https://www.linuxlinks.com/best-free-open-source-graphical-mastodon-clients/ Of those options, Tuba is the only one still under active development which is based on Gtk. It is written in Vala, and I have tried it, but it wasn't all that much better than the web client, so I decided it wasn't worth the trouble. But I still recommend you try it for yourself.

@paulgc@mastodon.social nope! Replies are only received by your server if they're sent them by the person replying. On Mastodon this usually takes the form of a mention. When a user is mentioned on Mastodon, they are de facto addressed as well. In turn, that means the activity is delivered to those addressed users. If a mastodon user replies to your post but does not mention you, then you will not be receiving that reply. (I think.)

@matt what's your hosting setup?

p.s. I know a lot of people know about editing but posted because still seeing people unaware of the edit feature on here. This is possibly because other platforms don't have editing or restrict its use to elite members.Everyone can edit their posts on here, you don't need to be a special member of any kind.

@julian No. I'm not. Just contributed like fixing typos.

@WeirdWriter As Mastodon and most other Fediverse-software are federating, of course Mastodon should show the full text of every federated instance. @jdp23

@8124 @stefan @elena good! I think there are social pressures possible, such as blocking servers that don't respect advisory flags.

@Sharksonaplane @jeridansky It's good to be back!
