Yea nice. Not to take away from the lemmy devs and your praise ... but mastodon certainly seems problematic in this regard. While gargron has done a lot in building that platform, and kinda deserves, I suppose, to "own" the platform, it certainly seems (from what I've gathered) a lot of people's work in building up the software and its userbase has been easily ignored or dismissed by gargron, and of course, as you say, he's really not that interested in what others want or need from the platform.
