@@reiver The #Fediverse doesn't have a unified #UX. And it will never have one. Because it will never have a unified #UI.

The projects are just too different. They aren't all just #Mastodon plus a few extra features on top. They aren't all just microblogging or, in the case of #Pixelfed, microblogging with pictures. #MastodonIsNotTheFediverse.

#Friendica, #Hubzilla and #Streams are so much different from Mastodon that a unified #FediverseUX wouldn't work for them. (streams) even more than Friendica, and Hubzilla even more than (streams).

Speaking of Hubzilla: On the one hand, it's default theme, the only official theme that's currently supported, is browser hell. It capitulates before Hubzilla's massive feature wealth.

But it takes me three self-explanatory clicks to follow anyone on any instance of any project that's connected to Hubzilla, be it on my Hubzilla hub, be it on another Hubzilla hub, be it on Mastodon, be it somewhere else in the Fediverse, be it on #Diaspora* or elsewhere. Granted, it may take me more because there's a configuration window for each connection popping up, but it takes me always the same two clicks to get there and a third to confirm it.

Still, I wouldn't wish for Mastodon to adopt this UI, also because it wouldn't even work on something as simple and frugal as Mastodon.
