This is a work in progress, so feedback very welcome! And, if please check out the Mastodon poll about interest in a fork
Contents:
- Intro
- There’s a lot of low-hanging fruit
- Safety is an especially good area to focus on
- It’s not as easy as it sounds …
- But it’s not like it defies the laws of physics!
- What about funding?
- Make sure there are funded leadership and project roles for Black, Indigenous, Muslim, trans, queer, and disabled people as well as others who have been marginalized in Mastodon’s development history
- Let a thousand forks bloom!
- Clever conclusion! tbd
As the tbd in that last bullet implies, the conclusion isn’t written yet. Like I said it really is a work in progress!

What about allowing posts that are visible only to mutuals (i.e. not any random person who follows you, which you have no control over unless you lock your account down like a paranoiac), and/or selected lists (as on LiveJournal, Google Circles and Facebook)? Surely that would be possible with Authorised Fetch, yet nobody mentions the possibility.
