@randahl An app could reasonably provide some sort and filter options that you control (keywords, number of favourites and boosts, replies, that kind of thing). Threading them so you only see the back and forth if you click in would be a good idea, too.

But a huge selling feature of Mastodon is that it doesn't outsource decisions about what's important to an unaccountable algorithm.

@ECityMom Looks like a "if you don't agree to my demands, I'm gonna shoot my own foot" situation.

@AlisonCreekside Just a note to clarify, as I think "vote in the NDP leadership race at its convention in March" might discourage some.

Members do not have to attend the convention to vote.
