Mastodon could soon be getting the ability to backfill posts for profiles that an instance hasn't seen before. This will fix a major issue that has made the experience of using Mastodon confusing for new users especially on smaller instances and continues to be a major pain point for experienced users.
Hopefully this won't get delayed any longer than is needed because it's a huge limitation that doesn't need to exist.

@ikuturso This is something I've been wanting since I joined Mastodon. So many profiles that are obviously active, but look empty because of this.
While at it, I'd love the ability to somehow make remote account's media visible beyond whatever's the cache purge limit on the server I'm on. It has always felt like a bug to a non-technical user's point of view.
