When I started using Adobe Photoshop in the early 90s, I was happy with the #intuitive and #discoverable user interface. I've now done three projects with WordPress Gutenberg, and the experience is disappointing. I don't think WP developers built on past success. Gutenberg is like a Harappan script.
I brought a #legit policy discussion live out here, and it's not #running right now, but I publish the books about it. No one read free one. All kinds of #discoverable #corruption and why you should #NOT #vote for #Democrats even if you want to. We really need a third candidate. Do you want honesty?

And just for the record —
Just like everyone else I contacted about their 'discoverable' flag being set —
He wasn't aware of the 'discoverable' flag existing (just like everyone else I contacted).
He didn't want to be hidden (just like everyone else I […]

As it is now, I think the 'discoverable' flag is broken.
And, I think the whole user-experience (UX) around the 'discoverable' flag is poor.
And, I think Fediverse software treating a 'false' value for 'discoverable' as "not discoverable" (rather than "not discoverable" or "no choice […]

So now I have to DM Ben to tell him that his 'discoverable' flag is set to false
He (just like everyone else I contacted) will likely not even be aware that the 'discoverable' flag exists
And (just like everyone else I contacted) wished it wasn't set […]

As it is now, the 'discoverable' flag seems broken to me.
Because 'false' doesn't actually mean 'false'.
'false' (in practice) means both "not discoverable" and "no choice made". And this is a very unfortunate situation —
Because the idea of a 'discoverable' flag is a good idea — but […]

JSON and has a 'null'. That could have been used for the 'discoverable' flag.
We could have had so that:
'discoverable' set to 'true' meant that the user explicitly chose to be discoverable.
'discoverable' set to 'false' meant that the user explicitly chose to not be discoverable.
And […]

With other conceptions, this lack of choice — this lack of setting a value — isn't as muddled.
With optional-types (which are also called "option-types" and "maybe-types") when something isn't assigned a value it is represented as 'nothing' / 'none'.
In relation-databases, this is […]

As it is right now, the 'discoverable' flag does not communicate whether the user actually made a 'true' or 'false' choice.
If it is 'true' we know they made a choice.
But if it is 'false' it either means the user chose 'false' or the user didn't make a choice. BUT WE CANNOT TELL THE […]

There are a HUGE number of people who (unknown to them) have their 'discoverable' flags set to 'false' who —
№2:
Do NOT know that they have a 'discoverable' flag —
And do NOT know that their 'discoverable' flag was automagically set to 'false' —
And do not understand the consequence of […]

A problem with the 'discoverable' flag (in Mastodon and any other Fediverse software that added it) is —

Top paper. Nice one!
"I examine the impact of increased #visibility on the depth and scope of recombination of knowledge. In doing so, I first argue that older papers were favorited by the launch of Google Scholar (GS) as they became more #discoverable. The mechanisms involve (i) a reduction […]
