My first reaction was of course to feel that I couldn't wait to federate with them when Bonfire would become stable but I also wonder if this isn't a bug?
Think at topics as a way to (collectively) curate contents that are created daily over the fediverse.
A topic (eg. +transfeminism) can include any activity (of any kind and from any user) that fits its scope and may have sub-topics to fine grain the level of details of what it is about.
A user can follow a topic same as they would follow a user (in fact, at code-level, topic is an AP actor as well).
Anytime a new activity is added to it (by +tagging it), the topic will auto-boost it and that activity will appear on the timeline of any user that followed it (you will notice a little "published in topicname" above the activity).
When you create a topic, you can also define its boundary, and (soon) add roles - to specify which user has permissions to add / review / ... it.
Topics are a powerful way to collect activities that are trasversal to any specific user in ways that do not enforc the current social media trend of pushing users to become influencers.
Will #hashtags be useless with topics ?
🌰 Même en novembre, fruits et légumes de saison, et si possible bio et locaux ! 🍄
Dumb idea but if the UI was only available in the languages the admins speak, for a modular social media service, it could encourage its users to contribute to the git repository, raise issues, etc. in their own languages (instead of feeling gatekept as non-English speakers)? @BonfireBuilders #bonfire_feedback

boundaries and circles atm they're not really usable, we've been iterating through different UXs, and we plan to work on them in the coming month
, the first time a message appear Unblocked ; why `
When i ghost myself, on the Settings > Ghosted page i am in the list, there is a button Unghost , when i click on the "Unghost" button :
- the first time, a message appear "Unblocked" ; why "Unblocked" and not "Unghosted" ?
- the second time, a message appear "Could not unblock", why the blocked user is not removed from the ghosted list when i clicked the first time ?
On the reply, there is 3 dots buttons, in this context menu, there is the option "Delete this Respond from feeds" that is larger than the context menu ; also why "Respond" with a capitalized "R" ?
I can "Reply" to a "Post" but i can delete my "Respond" ; do there is differences between "Reply" and "Respond" ?
For consistency reason, i would expect to have the same word used every where

In the last UI update, I don't see the "load more" button? (And I don't miss it?) @BonfireBuilders #bonfire_feedback
I'm not saying you should drop the "load more" button but I'd be interested to see builds that explicitly exclude it @BonfireBuilders #bonfire_feedback

Oh, looks like you can get discussion on a post, and it's threaded, too, simply by virtue of replies being themselves posts that you can reply to.
TBH I did like unthreaded replies on G+; it was more like a normal conversation.
Also, I think that the editor expects single newlines, but doesn't visually display that quite like it'll end up in a published post. I have a habit, from text editors, of doing double-newlines! So I thought, based on the look of the editor, that I should, and then the resultant post looked spaaaaaaaced ouuuuuuuut.
Also, cmd-return doesn't post. Let's see if ctrl-return does. Nope!
Oh, and Masto displays things fine but:
- Strips all Markdown formatting.
- Ignores CWs.
The first I can live with, but the second would seem to pose a defederation risk, because it makes it seem like you're not playing along nicely.
