* <<F27.0646>> The stuff that sucks about GNU social/StatusNet:

- No ability to favor, repeat, or comment on posts by users your 
instance doesn't know.
  + Essentially, you only interact with your local cache of the 
network. 
  + To interact with the wider network, you would need to pull users, 
posts, into your local cache
    - There is no mechanism (that I've found yet) for doing this for 
a one-off individual user/post
    - Except, perhaps, the repeat action?
- "Note" truncation occurs when federated messages arrive, and the 
current UIs do not handle this well
  + An ellipsis appears at the tail of truncated notes, but (on 
Quitter) the link goes nowhere
    - Especially infuriating because the server KEEPS A FUCKING COPY 
OF THE ORIGINAL NOTE as an attachment.
  + There is a "truncated" property in the post database, but it 
appears to not be used.
- Conversations are basically useless on single-user servers
  + They are pulled from the local cache, which only has posts from 
people you follow, or repeats of people your follows follow.
