I really wanted to like Mastodon (never used Twitter) but my main issue with it are;

  • Blocking NSFW does not work properly.
  • Continuously see different languages.
  • Uncertain how it works (not sure who to follow or which communities/ topics).

yeah that is why I enjoy much more on bluesky lately because we have customised feed (especially for you which is very similar like X), good engagement, good language filter and ease of use for signup and usage.

I'm gonna be honest, Mastodon is kinda trash, on its own. It's clunky, ugly, and feels like a platform from 2010 (but not in a good way). I think getting people onboard with a Misskey/Sharkey instance is going to be much better. The feature set is a lot closer to Twitter, and it does literally everything Mastodon does, but better.

What client are you using? Those all sound like complaints about the client, not mastodon.

Uh, probably the default web interface. And Masto servers still lack quite a bit of functionality found on other fedi services.
