why the hell does mastodon not let me actually look at notifications coming to my old account when it's redirecting here? like I can just imagine that someone's tried mentioning @fluffy@queer.party without remembering I moved instances and it's just going into a black hole
@fluffy@awoo.space @fluffy@queer.party that would be a great feature, I wonder what kind of extra work that would be.
An alternate idea might be to notify people when they are tagging an account that has been redirected and prompt them to tag the correct account.
@forte @fluffy@queer.party I mean the real question is, why the heck does Mastodon purposefully disable the notifications view of forwarded accounts? It didn't use to!
@fluffy@awoo.space @fluffy@queer.party oh, what? If you log into the forwarded account it doesn't let you see that account's notifications? Weird.
@forte yeah that's what I'm saying
ugh, and while investigating this the redirect somehow got completely messed up and now I can't turn it on again for another 20 days, wtf
