<p>I did some googling and found a number of feature requests, with this (six-year-old!) one being the original:</p><p><a href="https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/1483" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i</span><span class="invisible">ssues/1483</span></a></p><p>It doesn't appear there's been any real movement on this, even if it's a purely client-side change, and I'm mostly just curious why.</p><p>Do the people who build Mastodon never go viral?</p>
