I cannot put into words how profoundly stupid this “feature” is. AOL and Geocities pages were genuinely more user friendly. Whoever added it, refreshed the page and said “yeah, this works well” and left it in should be fired! …out of a cannon and into the Sun!
I noticed it too. As a new (Less than a few hours old as of this comment) user, this is a hell of an introduction to the Fediverse for me.
Please hang on! Everything will improve in time :)
