@Dragan_Espenschied @BonfireBuilders @barefoot_doc @LibertyBeta @dajbelshaw @ivan right, and my assumption is that of those 3 places, only the /write page "makes it look like I should just keep posting", no? if you're in your main feed what you posted does get added to the top, same if you're replying in a thread or message, guess I'm just worried of loosing context if a redirect is triggered...

after I push the "post" button, instead of showing me the result of my labor, bonfire shows a toast message with a link that would lead me there.
My sense is that posting something should show me what I sent out into the world immediately, as others will see it.
Definitely, yes. Please put us back into the feed after we post.
are you talking specifically about using the page at /write (like when you click share feedback)? or also the composer in the sidebar?
I'm confused.
I haven't clicked <Share feedback> at all so, no, not that one. But is there a composer in the sidebar? Not in my sidebar, i think.
The only composer I've seen - writing a new post or replying to one - is a damn big one that occupies far more screen than it needs to do - 50% of the browser window area - with acres of white space, running down to the bottom of the browser window ( meaning that the drop-down menu on the <Public> button runs off the bottom of the window and is unreadable and inaccessible - if anything in fact lives there in the drop-down, apart from 'Public').
I would be very satisfied with a small composer in a sidebar, similar to Mastodon.
btw, what's the character limit on a post? Are they limitless? O dear 🙄
Oh, are you on mobile?
I'm on Firefox under MacOS
There are many different views from which I can write a post. Now I am replying to your post from my notifications. When I hit "Post" I'm not seeing my post in context, I just get a Toast with a link to it.
Same from the main timeline view, and the /write view.

@barefoot_doc uhm It seems to me that you are asking for the opposite of what @Dragan_Espenschied suggested? or am I misunderstanding?
Yeah. Fire and see, not fire and fire again.
